The Emir of Kano, Muhammadu Sanusi II, has challenged security agencies to go after the real culprits of the August 1 #Endbadgovernance nationwide protest, instead of innocent minors.
Sanusi stated this on Wednesday when he visited the released minors at the Muhammadu Buhari Specialist Hospital, Kano, where they are currently undergoing rehabilitation. 'Many of them are students who go to school. They were picked up in the streets not in the middle of the violent act. 'It is sad that they received this treatment. But we thanked the presidency and federal government for intervening and bringing an end to their difficulties.
“We urge the authorities to focus on the adults who started this riot. This riot happened in Kano, photographs were taken, people were identified, those people have been walking round the streets including in Abuja while these children have been in custody. “We hope that in the interest of justice when things of this nature happen, we will identify the real culprits and arrest them and try them rather than innocent children,' he said.
