Police debunk alleged terrorist attack on Kano community

The Kano State Police Command has debunked a trending report that claimed terrorists had invaded a community in the state, describing the said report as a malicious attempt that wanted to feast on tensions in other parts of the country to disrupt the peace in the state.

 The command, however, confirmed that what was erroneously reported as a terrorist attack last week was actually a communal clash between three villages in the Rogo Local Government Area of the state, which happened in August.
