Hisbah confiscates 142 cartons of alcohol heading to Buhari’s local govt
The Katsina State Hisbah Board has seized about 142 cartons of alcohol intended for delivery to Daura Local Government Area of the state.
Dr. Aminu Usman, the state Hisbah Commander, revealed this information during an interview with the News Agency of Nigeria on Saturday.
The alcohol was seized on Monday during a comprehensive patrol aimed at eliminating immoral behaviors and indiscipline, Usman stated.
The operation, which took place along the state’s ring road, resulted in the interception of a vehicle carrying the cartons of alcohol. Malam Nafi’u Ma’azu-Akilu supervised the task, ensuring the confiscated items were delivered to the board’s headquarters for further investigation.

In a related incident, the board arraigned two women for loitering and immoral conduct. This marks the fourth time these individuals have faced such charges.
The women, identified as Fatima Umar (Yargata) and Raliya Isah (Yar Ruma), both approximately 24 years old, were previously warned and counseled to reform their behavior. Their failure to comply led to their arraignment before a Sharia Court.
Both women pleaded guilty and were remanded in a correctional facility until further trial on Thursday.
Usman urged parents, teachers, and community leaders to enhance their efforts in promoting discipline and good morals among the youth. He also called for continued support for the board’s initiatives to restore community values.
