CSO accuses Kano govt of delay in prosecuting Doguwa for inciting election violence

The Kano Civil Society Forum (KCSF), on Tuesday, accused the Attorney General and Commissioner for Justice, Musa Abdullahi Lawan of failure to arraign before a competent court of law, the House Leader, Alhassan Ado Doguwa over his alleged role in mass murder.

The Kano State police com­mand had a month ago, arrested and docked the House Leader, Alhassan Ado Doguwa before a Magistrate court in Kano over his role in the devastating electoral violence that rocked his country home during the February 25th Presiden­tial and National Assembly elections.

Kano Police Command had said Doguwa evaded arrest before they activated a motion that led to his arrest by detectives from the State Criminal Investigation Depart­ment (SCID), Bompai, Kano, at Malam Kano International Airport culminating in his arraignment on March 2nd.

Ibrahim A. Waiya, the Convener, Kano Civil Society Forum in a petition said the group was worried by the delay to arraign and charge Doguwa who was accused of playing a lead role in the destruction of lives and properties during the election.

It said the group already had a petition circulating and that no fewer than 177 persons have already signed it.

The petition titled “Petition Against Attorney General Of Kano State over delay to prosecute Ado Alhasan Doguwa,” has a target of 200 signatories and is more likely to be featured in recommendations.

Ambassador Waiya said, “As concerned citizens, groups and those that believe in the sanctity of human lives, we are worried by the slow and unprecedented delay to frame charges and arraign the suspects particularly Ado Alhassan Doguwa who was accused of playing the leading role in the destruction of lives and properties”.

The Kano-based CSO maintained that the House Leader under a sane clime ought to have been arraigned before a competent court of law to face the music.

He stated the CSO’s are “deliberately giving prominence to these two LGAs because they happened to be the alleged theatre of killings and burning of innocent people, as reported.”

He enjoined every right-thinking Nigerian, local and international organisations to join us in the crusade to fight for justice for the families of victims.
