The creation of mobile courts has received the approval of Kano State Governor Yusuf Abba in order to ensure prompt prosecution of phone snatchers in the state.
His press secretary, Alhaji Bature Tofa, said in a statement that the Special Joint Task Force would work with the mobile courts to try those who had been apprehended.
After eight years of darkness due to the lamps being turned off, Yusuf claimed that major streets in the city were now lit up.
“The new administration’s efforts to combat robbery, phone theft, and other criminal activities, particularly in metropolitan Kano, include the return of street lights.
“The ongoing exercise started penultimate Tuesday and will continue until every part of the state is saved from darkness that provides cover for criminals and political thugs,” he declared.
