On Thursday, the Police Commissioner in Kano State, Muhammad Usain Gumel, declared war against criminal elements causing unrest in the state. Naija News reports that Gumel made the declaration when he climbed the historic Dala Hill in the ancient city of Kano today. The police boss stated that the climbing of Dala Hill by him and his men symbolizes an end to criminalities and perpetrators of crimes in the area and the state at large. While calling on residents to support the Police Command with important information, Gumen stressed that he and his men would make the state unconducive for thugs, drug peddlers and other criminals threatening the life of the citizens. Gumel observed that the tourist attraction site had before now been taken over by criminal elements who have turned the place into their den, allowing only their members access to the hilltop from where the entire scenery of the Kano metropolis could be viewed. The CP announced names of some hardened criminals that have refused to submit themselves to the Command for dialogue giving them only two weeks or else they will be declared wanted and arrested anywhere they are seen. Having also read out a list of repentant thugs who have submitted their weapons and entered a pact to fight crime with the police, he gave the long list of those wanted by the command. He said: “Going forward, we are calling on you to please inform the following set of the second batch of people we want to have a dialogue with also to report themselves. “If not, within the next two weeks, anyone that refuses to be with us will henceforth be counted to be against us and will be arrested wherever we come across him. “They are, Bahago Tamasi Gwaranya, Bello Maro Yakasai, Dan Jibrilla Yakasai, Maraja Gabari and Sha’ban Tanga Yakasai. “Others include Dan Ayye Danagundi, Sharu Atta Hanga, Bala Laba, Da Bashir Zage, Dan Nura Sheshe, Khalifa Ado Galadanci, Dodon Mopol Yakasai, Dimfama Ziri and Sarki Dankima Rijiyar Lemo. “By this press briefing, the police command is calling for the collaborative effort of all the stakeholders, especially our non-state actors, the vigilante, traditional hunters, and special constabulary personnel to keep coming together to ensure that these elements of insecurity are hunted and arrested anywhere they are found,” the CP said. More so, CP Gumel also mentioned names of blacksmiths identified as producers of the local weapons used by the criminal gangs to also submit themselves to the police command within the same period or else they would be arrested to face the wrath of the law. “Equally, the police command is also going to start arresting fabricators of these life-threatening weapons, popularly known as blacksmiths, who on a daily basis keep arming the thugs. “It is on this development that the following blacksmiths are invited to the police command for dialogue; otherwise, the police will treat them as criminals. “They are as follows; Auta Makeri of Kwandarama village of Minjibir Local Government, Bala Israila of Santar Bulo village of Bichi, Sarkin Kira of Adakawa Quarters and Dayyabu Gawuna of Gawuna Quarters of Gawuna. “These are the elements of blacksmiths that we are looking for to come for dialogue. They are advised to report themselves to the police,” he declared. In his remark, the member representing Dala Constituency in the State House of Assembly, Lawan Husain, expressed appreciation for the people on behalf of the residents. He promised the police boss that the residents, on their part, would continue to support the steps being taken by the police command. He further advised that most of the places that are affected by these criminal activities in the state should be included in this project in order to reduce crime in the state.
