The Kano State Police Command has advised former governor of the State, Rabiu Kwankwaso to postpone his planned rally in the state.
Kwankwaso and the All Progressives Congress (APC) under the leadership of Governor Abdullahi Ganduje are set to hold parallel political rallies on January 30.
Speaking to newsmen on Friday, the Commissioner of Police, Rabiu Yusuf, warned that failure to comply with the order might attract stiffer implication.
He said intelligence information has it that the rally by the Kwankwaso group could be hijacked by miscreants.
Yusuf said: “There is apprehension amongst the general public and the tendencies to hijack the visit by some disgruntled politicians or miscreants cannot be wished away .
“Therefore any action or inaction by any person or group of persons that may jeopardize the relative peace in the state is currently enjoying must be averted.
“But is Kwankwaso insisted of coming the law would take it natural cause because we cannot file down our arms and allow peace to be truncated by any person or group of persons
“On this premise, it is the candid advice of the command that such a visit to the state should be shelved by Senator Rabiu Musa Kwankwaso until the tension generated by the planned visit is doused and security threat neutralized.”
