Victims of demolition spree embarked upon by the Kano state government have taken to the streets in their hundreds to condemn what they describe as destructive act.
The protesters gathered Monday morning at the frontage of the demolished muliti-million Naira Daula Hotel along Hadejia road in the metropolis carrying placards with various inscriptions condemning the government policy.
Some of the placards read “Do the right thing Abba Kabir Yusuf”, “Don’t drive away investors from Kano”, “Billions of Naira property demolished because of envy” among various others.
Addressing newsmen at the protest, the organizers headed by the Director, Research and Development Coalition for Good Governance and Change Initiative, Zahraddeen Sani Baba, said that it is unfortunate property worth N226 billion has been destroyed within three weeks in office by the new government.
The group also called on the government to compensate the victims who’s property were demolished.
