The Kano State Hisba Board said on Saturday that it received 243 complaints from January to April 4.
Public Relations Officer of the board, Malam Mohammed Yusuf, said this in Kano during an interview with the News Agency of Nigeria
He said the complaints were received from the 44 Local Government Areas of the state.
Yusuf said most of the complaints ranged from matrimonial issues, alleged ‘false marriages’, disputes among neighbours, alcohol consumption, prostitution, homosexual, rape among others.
He said the Board was screening the cases, with a view to referring them to relevant authorities for necessary action.

Yusuf added that some people approached the board for various forms of assistance to alleviate their economic situation.
He called on the public to cooperate with the board by giving it useful information on activities or gatherings that were capable of breaching peace and laws of the land.
