Kano State Governor, Abba Kabir Yusuf, has condemned what he described as the unruly and dangerous behaviour of some youths who forced their way into the Government House during the event held to welcome him into the All Progressives Congress (APC).
The governor spoke during a meeting with APC leaders and senior government officials, where he said the incident was disturbing and unacceptable.
He warned that such actions could damage Kano’s long-standing reputation as a state known for peace, discipline and order.
Reports from the event indicated that hundreds of youths were present inside the Government House premises.
They followed a political figure into the venue, with allegations that some were carrying dangerous weapons while others were openly using hard drugs. Some were also said to have shouted provocative slogans and called for the removal of the deputy governor.
Raising concerns at the meeting, the governor’s Special Adviser, Muhammad Jamu, described the situation as dangerous and unacceptable.
He warned that allowing armed youths to attend political or government events poses a serious threat to public safety and democratic values, adding that such behaviour must not be tolerated.
