Kano State Hisbah command
Hisbah arrests couple for marrying at Kano restaurant
The board’s Deputy Commander General of Operations, Dr. Mujahideen Abubakar, confirmed that on Thursday, Hisbah personnel raided the restaurant on Wednesday night following a tip-off.
“It’s very unfortunate to tell you that the solemnisation of the purported marriage was conducted in the restaurant by friends of the man without the consent of the parents of the couple,” he said.

He warned that the board would not frolic and allow some undesirable elements to continue to violate the shari’a law in the state.
According to him, the board had since begun a manhunt for all the guests who participated in the illegal solemnisation of the marriage.
“We arrested the couple. We are trailing friends of the groom who fled the restaurant after our personnel stormed the place,” he added.
The deputy commander stated that the couple violated all the marriage conditions, which is a flagrant violation of the Shari’a law.
