The Kano State governor, Abba Yusuf, has reacted to the public display of female underwear saying it is alien to the norms and values of the people of the state.
According to Daily Trust, Governor Yusuf spoke while hosting the girls at the Government House following public outrage over the incident, which circulated widely on social media.
“We heard what happened. We were going about our normal activities when some group of young women went to the street to display something. The governor was not aware of that at the time.
“Those teaching them, I am begging them to stop. Allow Kano to be in peace and allow the people to continue to live in harmony.
“When I heard about it, I directed that wherever the girls were, they should be brought to me. They are here now, and as you can see, they are praying,” Gov Yusuf narrated.
He further noted that the girls have been corrected and have now shown remorse for their actions.
“We have warned them and they have shown remorse. We should not hear anything like this again,” he stated.
