Governor Abdullahi Ganduje on Monday flagged off the destruction of 196,400 bottles of confiscated alcohol by the Kano State Hisbah Board.

Flagging off the exercise, Governor Abdullahi said that Islam strongly condemns drinking of alcohol and all other intoxicants that can distort mental capability of a person.

He spoke while flagging off the destruction exercise at Kalemawa in Dawakin Tofa Local Government Area, Kano State.

The governor was represented by his Deputy, Dr. Nasiru Yusuf Gawuna, who disclosed that other shari’a agencies in the state would enjoy support from the State Hisbah Biard to enable them discharge their responsibilities.

In his words, “In Islam, drinking of alcohol is strongly forbidden being one of the backbones of committing sins either big or small and that has been stated out at several places in the Holy Qur’an.

“Our Islamic scholars, religious and community leaders should join hands together in the crusade against such social vices because taking alcohol is not only forbidden by Islam, it is also forbidden by good Christians.”
