The quick intervention of security
agents averted what could have been a bloody clash in Sabon Gari area of
Kano state, when irate youths trooped out in their large numbers,
trying to prevent members of the Kano HISBAH from impounding a truck
loaded with beer and other assorted intoxicants.
It all started along France Road on Monday, when a truck loaded
with alcohol drink from Kaduna escaped been impounded, but luck however
ran out of the driver who was intercepted along France Road by Ibo Road
by the HISBAH.
In the process of impounding the drinks by members of the HISBAH,
some youths suddenly trooped out in their attempt to prevent the truck
loaded with beer from been arrested by members of the HISBAH which
degenerated into a hot argument between them.
Pandemonium however broke out between the irate youths and members
of the HISBAH board, as both claimed that the goods is already in their
territory and the HISBAH has no right to arrest the truck loaded with
beer.
As temper rise, the HISBAH started smashing the windscreen of the
truck and also deflated all the tyres before the intervention of the
security agents who resolved the matter.
However, at the end of it all, the HISBAH members were allowed by the security agents to tow the truck to their headquarters.
All efforts by The Nation to get the side of the HISBAH board proved abortive as at the time of filing this report.
