Kano State Hisbah Board has picked up popular TikToker, Murja Ibrahim Kunya, over alleged immorality.
Aliyu Usman, chairman, Operation ‘Kai da badala’ who doubles as the Officer-in-charge of Surveillance, confirmed the arrest to journalists on Tuesday.
“She was arrested yesterday (Monday) late evening at her residence located at Tinshama area. We spent about three hours waiting for her before she finally showed up and we picked her,” he told DailyTrust.
“She is being charged with immoral acts which she is widely known for. There is someone who everyday comes around to pick her around 10pm and will return her by 12 midnight or 1am.”
Usman disclosed that Kunya will be arraigned before a Shari’ah Court.
The Islamic police, Hisbah, had launched manhunt for at least six famous Tiktok skit makers for allegedly posting vulgar videos on social media.
This is coming few months after the Commander-General of the board, Sheikh Aminu Ibrahim Daurawa, invited all female Tiktokers in Kano to a session where the board offered to rehabilitate and empower them with businesses and scholarships.
At the meeting, Sheikh Daurawa, admonished all Tiktok and other social media entertainers to desist from posting contents capable of encouraging immorality in society.
