An alleged memo from the All Progressives Congress (APC) in Kano State has shown how the party tried to use the Nigeria Police Force to arrest and silence 16 notable persons in the state.

In the letter, Zakari allegedly asked the Nigerian Police Force to arrest the sixteen individuals and charge them to court according to terms provided by the party.

The letter reads: “On behalf of the Kano State APC Chairman, we request that the individuals listed in the table below be traced and arrested immediately after the Supreme Court’s verdict on Friday, January, 12” 2024, which will declare Dr. Nasiru Yusuf Gawuna as winner.

“We also request that your department should, as a matter of urgency, file charges and accuse them of using the social media in uttering unguarded statements capable of promoting violence and inciting people against the APC government. We have enough record of such posts. The name of the court you should convey their cases will be sent to you in due time. Please let us know what it will take.
