Kano State Governor, Abba Kabir Yusuf has vowed to ensure the safe return of minors from the state who are facing serious charges, including arson and treason, in a Federal High Court in Abuja.
The 76 suspects, predominantly minors, were arrested during the August #EndBadGovernance protests for various offenses, including vandalism and attacking police while expressing anti-government sentiments.

During the arraignment proceedings, chaos broke out at the Federal High Court when several minors collapsed while waiting for their cases to be heard.
In light of the situation, Governor Yusuf took to his X account to address the issue, revealing that he has directed the Kano attorney-general and commissioner of justice to take swift action.
He stated, “My attention has been drawn to the appearance of teenagers (some believed to be from Kano) in court today in Abuja. The Commissioner of Justice has been instructed to act immediately on the issue. We shall do everything possible to get them back to Kano, in sha Allah.”
