Abdullahi
Ganduje has on Wednesday 25 December 2019 placed a ban on men and women
boarding the same tricycle in Kano State.
Haruna
Ibn-Sina, the Commander-General of Hisbah Board who represented the Kano State
Governor at the closing ceremony of 77th annual Islamic vacation course put
together by zone A of Muslim Society of Nigeria held at the Bayero University,
Kano, said the ban will take effect from January 2020.
It was revealed
that the former governor of Kano, Ibrahim Shekarau had introduced tricycle
popularly called as “A daidaita Sahu” as a means of easy transportation for
women after placing a ban on motorcycles from conveying women.
So, after
Shekarau left the government, the tricycles have been allowed to convey Kano
residents of both sexes before the recent development.
