306

Auwal Danladi Sankara, the Commissioner of Special Duties in Jigawa State, has refuted a Kano Hisbah Command statement alleging his involvement in an illicit affair with a married woman in an unfinished building.

This follows reports of an alleged affair under suspicious circumstances involving Auwal Danladi Sankara, which went viral across various media platforms.

In a statement, Auwal Sankara said: “The Kano Hisbah Command has arrested me, Auwal D. Sankara, Commissioner for Special Duties in the Jigawa State Government, on charges of having an affair with a married woman.

“I wish to categorically state that these allegations are entirely false, baseless, and malicious, aimed at tarnishing my reputation.

“I urge the general public to disregard this fabricated story, which has been concocted by certain political elements to damage my character and integrity.

“As a married man, I have the utmost respect for the institution of marriage and would never engage in actions that violate its sanctity.

“I remain committed to upholding the values and principles that I stand for. I am taking this matter seriously and will pursue legal action against those responsible for spreading this false information and attempting to cause harm to my person.”

Persecondnews recalls that the Kano State Hisbah Command had announced the arrest of Auwal Sankara in an uncompleted building, which allegedly belongs to him, with a married woman under suspicious circumstances last night.
