The Kano State Hisbah Board, otherwise known as Sharia Police, has banned male Disc Jockeys from events dominated by women across the state.
The decision was revealed by the Commander General of the Board, Sheikh Aminu Ibrahim Daurawa, during a meeting with representatives of DJs in the state recently.
He said, “As an Islamic state, it is unacceptable for us to allow the indiscriminate mixing of males and females at the same event. This is because this act can promote and spread immorality.”
He explained that only women would be allowed henceforth to officiate at women’s gatherings.
Sheikh Daurawa noted that the prohibition is aimed at preventing the mixing of men and women during public events, citing religious and moral concerns.
He stressed that as a state guided by Islamic laws, it is imperative to uphold standards that discourage actions deemed contrary to Islamic tenets and teachings.
