The brazen abduction of Alhaji Hamza Durya by armed men highlights the growing insecurity in Kano State. The Kano State Government must be held accountable for its response to this incident, particularly in ensuring the safety of its officials and residents. The swift rescue by the DSS is a welcome development, but it also underscores the need for a more robust security apparatus in the state. The Commissioner for Information and Internal Affairs, Ibrahim Waiya, must provide a detailed account of the incident and the measures being taken to prevent such abductions in the future. The people of Kano deserve to feel safe in their homes and communities.
