A police operative in Kano, where the protest against bad governance and hardship has snowballed into violence, was captured on video openly threatening to kill protesters.
The unrest in the northern ancient city saw hoodlums looting
both government and private properties, leading to clashes with security
forces.
The violent outbreak reached a peak at the Government House
in Kano, prompting authorities to implement a curfew on Governor Abba Kabir
Yusuf’s orders.
Some protesters, however, defied the restrictions and
continued to challenge security forces on the streets.
A video circulating online depicts a policeman, speaking in
Hausa, threatening protesters amidst the chaos.
The officer was heard saying: “Keep looting. Is it because I
did not do what I had done to them? Those throwing stones should not stop. I
swear to God, if police officers bleed, I will kill. I swear to God I will
kill.”
