Jigawa Hisba Board's Bashir Advocates Media Campaigns Against Vices

Muhammad Bashir, the Commander-General of the Jigawa State Hisba Board, called on media professionals and the board's social media handlers to focus on campaigns against indecency and social vices. This appeal was made during a one-day in-house sensitisation workshop for zonal social media officers at the board's headquarters in Dutse.

The workshop, organized by the Media Unit, aimed to strengthen the capacity of officers managing social media platforms. Bashir emphasized that the success of the Jigawa Hisba Command relies on accurate reporting of its activities and warned against careless postings that could lead to misinformation.

He reiterated that the board's core mandate is moral guidance and reformation, not just enforcement. Public Relations Officer Dauda Hadejia stated that a central social media platform would be established to prevent unauthorized publications.

The workshop facilitator, Engineer Adamu Kore, trained participants on responsible social media practices to enhance the board's image and counter misinformation.
