Rising Killings in Kano Under Governor Yusuf's Leadership
Gwarzo expressed alarm over the deteriorating security situation in Kano under Governor Yusuf, highlighting a surge in killings and property looting in areas such as Tsanyawa and Shanono Local Government Areas. He reported that dozens of people have been killed, with some residents abducted and remaining captive for six months.
