The Kano State Police Command has issued an urgent directive as the Federal High Court delivers judgment in the Kano Emirate tussle.

The Police directed the public to remain calm and patriotic as the Federal High Court prepares to hear sensitive cases related to the Emirship dispute.

In a statement released on Thursday, the command’s spokesperson, SP Abdullahi Kiyawa, emphasized the commitment to safeguarding lives and property, cautioning against any attempts to incite violence.
