Shehu Sani, a former lawmaker Kaduna Central Senator, has
criticized Governor of Kano State, Umar Ganduje for approving the deportation
of almajiris in the State.
Ganduje said the deportation
was taken to reduce the risk of exposing almajiris to the deadly coronavirus.
He was quoted as saying, “This is to reduce the risk of
exposing them to Coronavirus and related hardship from the lockdown that will
further affect them.”
But reacting Shehu Sani said “To embrace and accommodate the
Almajiri for Elections and Census and reject and ‘deport’ them for #COVIDー19 Is
Unconscionable.”
The Governor had earlier banned street begging by Almajiri
children in the state.
Ganduje had said the decision was made to fully consolidate
the free and compulsory primary and secondary schools education in Kano State.
