Governor Abba Yusuf of Kano has appealed to President Bola Tinubu to redeploy the state’s Commissioner of Police, Ibrahim Adamu-Bakori, over alleged partisanship.

Gov. Yusuf accused the police of last-minute withdrawal of police officers from the Independence Day anniversary parade held in Kano on Wednesday.

While lamenting over the conduct of the police, the governor described the action as an affront to the people of Kano and to the spirit of national unity.

“I would like to call for all the security agencies to continue committing themselves in the tribes of this country, including Kano State, and all other states.

“But security agencies, in Kano in particular, they shouldn’t be involving themselves in partisan politics, which will do no good to all of us in Kano State and in Nigeria of course.

“Let me say in particular that I would like to seize this opportunity as a Nigerian, as Kano citizen, and as the Chief Security Officer of Kano State, to condemn the unethical and partisan attitude of the current Commissioner of Police in Kano State,” the governor stressed.

According to him, the police commissioner’s absence from the parade, along with his personnel, was a deliberate decision that embarrassed the state on a historic day.

“As you can see, on this historic and independent anniversary of Nigeria, he decided to pull out of the parade along with his own personnel.

“This is for reasons pertinent to him and pertinent to his people. Let me say that Kano State’s Chief Security Officer, on behalf of the government, are not happy with this attitude of the Commissioner of Police,” he stated.

He, however, said despite the provocation, the state remained peaceful.

“Today, every Nigerian is happy to celebrate the independence of this country. And we insist on it because we know Kano is peaceful. The good people of Kano are peace-loving people.

“They have been looking for this day, when we all gather here, to celebrate the independence of our country. And here is one of the security personnel, a special chief security of the police force here in Kano. This is a point to the Kano people,” he said.

When contacted, the spokesman of the state’s police command, Haruna Abdullahi Kiyawa, didn’t respond to our correspondent’s inquiry on the matter.
