WATCH THE VIDEO HERE Governor Abba Kabir Yusuf of Kano State has directed the Commissioner of Justice and Attorney General, Barrister Haruna Isa Dederi, to take immediate action to bring back arrested minors believed to be from Kano. The decision comes after some of the hunger protesters slumped during their arraignment at a Federal High Court in Abuja on Friday. The protesters, arrested during the August 1-10 #EndBadGovernance demonstration, faced charges including terrorism, arson, and treasonable felony. Four protesters, including two minors, slumped and were hospitalized, while 114 others were granted N10 million bail each with two sureties. In a post on his verified Facebook page, Governor Yusuf stated, “My attention has been drawn to the appearance of teenagers (some believed to be from Kano) in court today in Abuja. “The Commissioner of Justice has been instructed to act immediately on the issue. We shall do everything possible to get them back to Kano, in sha Allah.”
