The Commissioner for Special Duties in Jigawa State, Auwal Sankara, has refuted a statement issued by the Kano Hisbah Command, which alleged his involvement in an illicit affair with a married woman in an uncompleted building.
This follows reports of an alleged affair under suspicious circumstances involving Sankara, which went viral across various media platforms.
In a statement, Auwal Sankara said, “My attention has been drawn to a recent media report alleging that I, Auwal D. Sankara, Commissioner for Special Duties in the Jigawa State Government, have been arrested by the Kano Hisbah Command on charges of having an affair with a married woman.
“I wish to categorically state that these allegations are entirely false, baseless, and malicious, aimed at tarnishing my reputation.

“I urge the general public to disregard this fabricated story, which has been concocted by certain political elements to damage my character and integrity.
“As a married man, I have the utmost respect for the institution of marriage and would never engage in actions that violate its sanctity.
“I remain committed to upholding the values and principles that I stand for.
“I am taking this matter seriously and will pursue legal action against those responsible for spreading this false information and attempting to cause harm to my person.”
Recall that the Kano State Hisbah Command announced the arrest of Auwal Sankara in an uncompleted building, which allegedly belongs to him, with a married woman under suspicious circumstances last night.
