A peaceful and peaceable ambiance prevails in Kano as residents elect council representatives throughout the 44 native authorities areas of the state.
The Kano State Unbiased Electoral Fee (KANSIEC) has deployed over 12,000 advert hoc employees and delicate supplies for the conduct of the council election.
Although the election was but to start as of 10 a.m. in some polling items visited round Tarauni, Municipal, and Dala within the metropolitan centres, the surroundings stays calm.
Main roads and streets are abandoned, in strict compliance with the state authorities’s motion restriction directive.
Equally, closely armed vigilante teams, males of the Hisbah Fee, and hunters have taken over the safety of polling items and the KANSIEC headquarters. This follows the withdrawal of police and different safety companies.
