The Inspector General of Police , Mohammed Adamu, and the Kano State Commissioner of Police have been accused of working to frustrate the enforcement of a judgment directing the immediately reopening of a rice factory sealed by the Kano State government.
The Tiamin Rice processing factory, located at C14 AA Shehu House, Amana City, Zaria Road, Kano, was sealed by the state government, claiming that it was too close to an isolation centre created for COVID-19 patients. Justice Abang held, among others, that the closure of the factory, without a valid court order, violated the rights of the applicants and the exemption accorded food production companies by the Federal Government.
But in their counter-affidavit, the applicants queried the interest of the IGP and the Kano police chief in seeking to frustrate the execution of the judgment that did not directly affect them. “The judgment debtors do not care even for the lives and welfare of staff for these innocent trapped and locked up in the factory premises.”
