Police Invite Daily Nigerian Publisher Over Alleged Defamation - Ja’afar Ja’afar Summoned

The Nigerian Police Force has invited Daily Nigerian Publisher Ja’afar Ja’afar over allegations of criminal conspiracy, defamation, and incitement. The invitation, endorsed by a Kano court, directs Ja’afar to appear at the Zonal Intelligence Department, Zone One Police Headquarters in Kano.

This action stems from a report published by Ja’afar alleging corruption involving the Protocol of the Kano State Government House. The report led to a legal suit filed by Abdullahi Ibrahim Rogo, claiming defamation.

The police's invitation aims to ensure a thorough investigation into the matter. Ja’afar, a seasoned journalist and communicator, is required to comply with the summons.
