According to Sahara Reporters, Rano Local Government Area of Kano State has placed a ban on people of the opposite s*x from meeting together in public places at night.
The new bye-law enacted to this effect is as a result of the reported cases of immoral activities between girls and boys, including divorcees.
Lovers can now only meet during the daytime to discuss, the local authorities stated.
The local government information officer, Habibu Faragai, said the council chairman, Dahiru Muhammad, announced the law at a security committee meeting attended by residents and traditional leaders.
Muhammad noted that the committee had raised alarm over the high rate of immorality in the local government area, adding that the concern guided the council to come up with the new law.
He said the law was meant to sanitize the council area of immoral activities occurring during night discussions between the opposite s*x.
The council boss directed the state’s Islamic police Hisbah board and other security agents at the local level to ensure compliance and arrest defaulters.
Also, the district Head of Rano, Mannir Tafida-Abubakar, called on the village and ward heads as well as Imams across the council area to ensure that residents comply with the new law.
Tafida-Abubakar said there are about three major issues bordering on immorality happening in the area and had become a source of concern to residents.
Parents must welcome the decision and support it. If parents do not cooperate and such things happen again, the affected will face the consequences of their negligence,” the traditional ruler said.
The state government had banned the opposite s*x from boarding the same commercial tricycles in 2019.
