    KANO YOUTHS SET SHARIA COURT ABLAZE


    Some Muslim youths on Friday stormed the Kano Government House and the palace of the Emir of Kano, Mahammad Sanusi II, to protest an alleged blaspheming of Prophet Mohammed (SAW) by a Tijjani preacher, Abdul Nyass.

    The protesters, armed with sticks and other dangerous weapons, stormed the streets of the city to express their anger over Nyass’ alleged blasphemous statements against Prophet Mohammed.

    The youths attempted to gain entry into the Kano State Government House, but were prevented by security operatives, who had hectic time calming them.

    Chanting “Allahu Akbar, Allahu Akbar,” meaning “God is great,” “God is great,” the youths temporarily caused chaos at the Government House, causing stampede for about an hour before the intervention of government officials and security agents, who also formed a ring-like barricade to prevent their entry.

    The intervention of Governor Rabiu Kwankwaso was said to have averted a bloody clash between the protesters and security operatives manning the gate, while police officers were immediately drafted by the state Commissioner of Police, Ibrahim Idris, to the scene.

    The governor, who was represented by the Commissioner for State Affairs, Mr. Aminu Gwarzo, and the Commissioner for Water Resources, Dr. Yunusa Dangoni, later invited the leader of the sect, Sherriff Sani Jan-bluo, before peace was restored.

    However, the irate youths set ablaze Nyass’ house in Gaide, Kombotso Local Government Area of the state and burnt part of the state Sharia court, a development which ignited widespread condemnation across the state from prominent Tijaniyya leaders, including Shiek Dairu Bauchi, and Califa Shiek Isyaka Rabiu.

    The court, located in Rijia Lemo, where the preacher was supposed to appear was set ablaze by the youths after patiently waiting for a long time without him showing up.
