Kano state has warned youths terrorising communities in the state to desist from disrupting the relative peace in the state or face the wrath of the state government.
The state Commissioner for Internal Security and Special Services, Air Vice Marshal Ibrahim Umar (rtd) gave the warning when he led security operatives to Kurna Tudun Fulani, one of the most vulnerable areas in Dala Local Government Area.
The visit was sequel to security tips on how some unscrupulous youths have been terrorising the community, which has led to the loss of lives and the destruction of properties.
The commissioner, however, noted that one such clash recently led to the death of one Abba Sa’idu.
He said the present administration under the leadership of Governor Abba Yusuf is committed to enhancing security in the state.

According to him, efforts are being taken to ensure all unemployed youths are provided with skills in order to make them self-reliant and relevant to society.
While stressing that the issue of security is everyone’s business, he said all hands must be on deck to safeguard the lives of everyone.
He therefore advised every household in the area to join hands with security agencies and report suspicious persons to the security agencies to improve security in the area.
The Ward Head of Kurna Tudun Fulani, Usaini Ibrahim, appealed to the state government to build a police outpost in the community to enhance the security of the area.
