Kano Gov exposes security alert, warns citizens

The Kano State Government has dismissed widespread rumours suggesting an impending security crisis in the state, insisting that Kano remains calm, stable and fully secure.

The clarification followed a State Security Council meeting held on Sunday, attended by all service chiefs, where Governor Abba Yusuf received a detailed briefing on current security operations across the state.

In a statement issued on Monday by the Director-General, Media and Publicity, Sunusi Dawakin-Tofa, the government said no credible intelligence indicates any imminent threat to public peace.

“There is no valid or actionable information pointing to any significant security risk in Kano,” the statement said, describing the circulating reports as false, sensational and deliberately aimed at creating panic.

The government expressed concern over what it called a rising pattern of fake security alerts, warning individuals behind such posts to desist or face legal consequences.

According to the statement, the state government has strengthened coordination with security agencies and community structures, with surveillance intensified across all local government areas.

“Security formations have been briefed, strategically deployed and are working round the clock to neutralise any potential breach,” Dawakin-Tofa added, stressing that every part of Kano is under active watch.

Residents were urged to remain calm, go about their activities without fear and avoid spreading unverified information on social media.

The statement added that the administration is enhancing intelligence gathering, improving inter-agency collaboration and deploying advanced security measures to safeguard the state.

“The government remains fully committed to protecting lives and property. Kano will not succumb to fear, misinformation or attempts to destabilise its peace,” it said.
