The 16th Emir of Kano, Alhaji Muhammadu Sanusi II, has urged residents of the state engaging in the #EndBadGovernace protest to avoid being used by agents of destruction in the Northern region and Nigeria at large.
Sanusi made the plea following the return of protesters to the streets of Kano despite the curfew imposed to check widespread violence.
Some protesters reportedly regrouped in Tudun Wada of Nassarawa Local Government Area of Kano on Friday afternoon, after Governor Abba Kabir Yusuf relaxed the curfew to enable the Muslim faithful to observe Jumaat.
Many protesters wielded placards while others sang and clapped as they marched on the streets.
Speaking at a press conference held at his Gidan Rumfa palace on Friday evening, Sanusi expressed concern over how public and private properties were looted and vandalised owing to the protest that was billed to be a peaceful demonstration against hunger and hardship in the country.
The Emir said what happened is a setback to the state, the northern region and the country at large.
