According to one Onyedika Anambra Emmanuel on Facebook, the Hisbah police and the Nigerian police force allegedly beat up igbo traders in Kano.
According to him, the hisbah police shutdown the shops of the Igbo trader in Sabo Gari Igbo market Kano today and asked them to go back home. The traders decided to protest as they were not given a concrete reason for locking down their shops, then the Nigerian and hisbah police beat them up leaving about 20 injured with some having fractured bones.
