Jigawa State Commissioner for Special Duties, Auwal Danladi Sankara, has been arrested over alleged affair with a married woman in an uncompleted building in Kano city.
The Director General of Hisbah Board, Abba Sufi, who announced the arrest today, October 18 in Kano, said that the arrest followed intelligence tracking prompted by complaints from the woman’s brother-in-law, Nasiru Bulama.
Bulama had accused Sankara of engaging in an illicit relationship with his wife, Tasleem Baba Nabegu, a mother of two children.
Sufi said that Bulama’s complaints were submitted to both the Kano State Police Command and the Department of State Services (DSS).
“We have been tracking him based on the reports we received.”
The Hisbah boss said that Sankara is also facing multiple charges, including operating illicit drug centers disguised as hotels.
The commissioner is set to appear in court on Monday to address these allegations.
