Commissioner of Special Duties in Jigawa State , Auwal Danladi Sankara, has been arrested and detained by the Kano State Hisbah Board for allegedly engaging in an extramarital affair with a married woman, Tasleem Baba Nabegu.

The commissioner was caught red-handed with Nabegu in an uncompleted building owned by him.

According to Hisbah Director General, Abba Sufi, Sankara’s arrest followed a series of complaints from Nabegu’s husband’s younger brother, alleging the commissioner’s involvement in nefarious activities.

“Yes, it is true we have arrested Auwal Danladi Sankara, the Jigawa Commissioner, with a married woman in an uncompleted building that belongs to him.

“Unknown to him, we were tracking him based on reports we received against him,” Sufi said.

Nasiru Bulama, Nabegu’s husband, had filed a complaint accusing Sankara of engaging in an illicit affair with his wife, the mother of his two children.

According to the Hisbah boss, Bulama reported the incident to the Kano State Police Command, Department of State Services (DSS), and the Hisbah Board.

“Nasiru Bulama filed the complaint with the Kano State Police Command, the Department of State Services (DSS), and the Hisbah Board, alleging Sankara’s involvement in illicit sexual activities with his wife,” the official added.

Sankara will face prosecution on Monday for multiple cases, including engaging in an extramarital affair with a married woman, operating illicit drug centres (with names Picklock, 360 and three other areas) disguised as hotels as well as promoting prostitution and drug addiction.

Nigeria’s national electricity grid suffered another collapse on Saturday morning, resulting in a nationwide blackout.

Data from the Nigerian system operator indicated that the grid recorded zero megawatts at 9:10 a.m.

This marks the third collapse in one week.

The national grid collapsed eight times in 2024, starting with the first incident on February 4.

Other collapses followed on March 28, April 15, July 6, and August 5.

More recently, Nigerians faced outages on October 14 and 15, disrupting daily activities and economic operations nationwide.

Power Minister Adebayo Adelabu has attributed the frequent failures to aging infrastructure, suggesting that more investment is required to modernize the grid and prevent future collapses.

Adelabu also proposed decentralising the power system, advocating for the establishment of multiple regional grids across states to minimize the impact of failures.

He said the country relies on a single national grid, so if there is a disturbance at the national grid, it affects all 36 states.

With the Electricity Act already allowing state and local governments to participate in power generation, transmission, and distribution, there are growing calls for urgent action.
