Kano state ban on sale and consumption of alcohol binding on Christians as well as Muslims
Sharia apologists in the West consistently declare that Sharia, when enforced upon an offered location, uses just to Muslims, not to any non-Muslims who might live there. Truth once again and once again shows otherwise.
“Kano Sharia Law Against Sale, Consumption Of Alcohol Binding On Muslims, Christians –State Hisbah Chief,” Sahara Reporters, January 12, 2021 (thanks to The Religious beliefs of Peace):
The Kano State Hisbah Board has stated the sale, consumption and ownership of alcoholic compounds are restricted in the state though not made unlawful by the Nigerian Constitution.
In an interview with SaharaReporters on Monday, Assistant Leader of Kano Hisbah, Nabahani Usman, stated Area 100 of the Nigerian constitution gives on each state the powers to enact laws ‘that will suit their purpose and interest’.
He stated the law is binding on anybody whether Muslims or non-Muslims, as long as the individual remains in Kano State.
He included, “Kano State Penal code 2004 prohibits the sale and distribution of all alcoholic substances in the state. If you are found to be selling, consuming, or dealing in any alcoholic substances in Kano, irrespective of who you are, you are affected by the law, so whether the person is a Muslim or a Christian, as long as you are in Kano, you are affected by the law. If I go to Anambra and there is a law in place, I have to comply with it.”
He stated the population of non-Muslims in Kano are over one million, and locations that are controlled by Christians are not typically interrupted by males of the Hisbah board.
“If you go to Sabon Gari, they buy and drink whatever they want and nobody disturbs them at all. It’s a different state up there. In Kano, (along) Igbo Road, Hausa Road, Yoruba Road, you cannot count the number of beer (sellers) in those places and it is sold openly but we don’t disturb them. Go at night, you will see so many people enjoying themselves, drinking. In fact, we warned our men not to go to Sabon Gari to arrest beer dealers; they should not go there to arrest. We know our Christian brothers and sisters are there and we don’t want to disturb or create anything that will generate disturbance in the state.”…
