BREAKING!! Tension Hits Aso Rock As Buhari Orders the Immediate Sack and Replacement of Kano Commissioner of Police, Wakili Now - Report

Information reaching us is that Kano CP, Wakili has been replaced with immediate effect. Wakili is to handover to Balarabe Sule.

Recall that the deputy governor of Kano State, Nasiru Gawuna, alongside the state commissioner for Local Government, Murtala Sule-Garo and chairman of Nassarawa Local Government, Lamin Sani, were involved in result sheet snatching at Airport Road collation centre around 3am on Monday, a situation that led to a fierce brawl.

Party agents reportedly beat the trio to a pulp, and police later rescued the deputy governor and arrested the commissioner and the local government chairman.

On Tuesday, at a press conference to douse tension over the inconclusive governorship election in Kano, Emir Muhammadu Sanusi II commended the Commissioner of Police, Mohammed Wakili, for maintaining peace and order in the state.


Mr Wakili, a fearless cop who wages war against drug abuse and political thuggery in the state, is arguably the most-loved police commissioner ever posted to the state.
