Emir of Kano, Muhammadu Sanusi II, has slammed security agencies for failing to avert the attack and destruction of public facilities during the protest in the state.

He regretted that the security agencies were notified in writing of the possibility of an attack on the Printing Press but failed to prevent it.

“It is surprising that four days to the attacks, the security were alerted and up till the time the place was attacked nothing was done by the security. This calls for real investigation into what had happened.

“It is clear that some people are hellbent on destroying Kano, and God knows them and sooner than later, they would be exposed and as well they will fully failed.

“It is also clear that the youths who participated in the nefarious actions were recruited by the enemies of the state to act against the interests of the government. We pray that God guide them to the right path.”

At the NCC Industrial Digital Park, Emir Sanusi urged Kano youths to open their hearts to know who really loves them and their enemies. The park was created to trained about there million youths to gain ICT Jobs.

“All those who gave you money to act negatively against the state, their children are studying outside the country, and the place was supposed to have been commissioned today (yesterday) but it was destroyed.

“We are highly touched by what had happened to the NCC. We are assured that the Federal Government would soon rebuild the place but we urge Kano youths to shun every negative tendencies that was targeted at them..

The Commissioner for Science, Technology and Innovation, Mohammed, Tajo Othman, explained that the Minister of Science and Technology has promised him that soon the park will be rebuilt.
