Kano State Film and Video Censorship Board says it has arrested and will arraign Kano-based singer of Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) Bashir Dandago, in court for allegedly releasing an inciting song which insulted scholars in the state over their stand on Sheikh Abduljabbar Kabara controversy.
The chairman of the board, Isma’il Na’abba Afakallah, said this on Monday.
He said Dandago will be arraigned on Wednesday before a Magistrate Court of Nomasland Kano.
Afakallah said Dandango’s offense “as far as censorship board is concerned, is that of releasing the song without our permission.
“We can’t allow people live without order.
“We are taking him to court for prosecution, and, it is the court that will determine the appropriate punishment for him.”
