Rabiu Shuaibu Abdullahi is a member of the legal team of the banned Islamic cleric in Kano, Sheikh Abduljabbar Nasir-Kabara. In this interview, Abdullahi accuses Kano State government of wrongly accusing his client of inciting the public. He gives a fresh perspective on the matter.
What can you say about the controversy surrounding Sheikh Abduljabbar?
On February 3, this year, around 11:30 am, we heard an announcement from Kano State Commissioner for Information that Sheikh Abduljabbar has been banned from preaching. His mosque and all his places of religious activities were directed to be closed with immediate effect. The following day, at about 5 am, security men were mobilised to his residence, library, mosque, school, and others situated at Sani Mainange in Filin Mushe.
