The Kano Peace Coalition Group has uncovered a report alleging that Dr. Rabiu Musa Kwankwaso, the Leader of the Kwankwasiyya Movement, manipulates youth groups to create uncertainty and chaos in the ancient City of Kano.
The State Coordinator of the Group, Datti Datti Tukur, explainedthat the Youth’s who are members of Kwankwasiyya Movement from the branches of the Social Media, have recently taken on their accounts attacking prominent political figures including the state Governor, Abba Kabir Yusuf, Abdullahi Umar Ganduje, and anyone who disagrees with his self-serving political philosophy.
The group specifically singled out a case in which the Kwankwasiyya handlers derogated the personality of Gov Yusuf depicting him in female attire wearing makeup.
Datti further added that, one of the characters involved in these atrocities was Abba Ibrahim Hussain aka Aiha, a notorious cyber stalker allegedly on the payroll of Kwankwaso.
“Available record shows that Hussain has been charged in a Magistrate Court 47 Zungeru Road, and remanded in Prison on 23 February 2026 for the offences of Cyber Bullying, Stalking, and inciting public disturbances” by the DSS Kano command.
Similarly, the Group also cited a case of one Abdulmajid Danbilki Kwamanda who was cautioned in the past by the security operatives for allegedly being used by Kwankwaso to denigrate the character of Governor Abba Kabir Yusuf and create tension in the state.
The group further added that “Despite clear facts against him, Danbilki was neither detained nor harassed by the security Agency”.
They said, reports available to them, also identified one Samir Sani Hanga, Son of the Senator representing Kano Central, Sani Hanga, who was also accused of cyberbullying and Staking but cautioned by the security to desist from such criminal behavior in the presence of his father.
“Investigation also uncovered the involvement of one Abdullahi Aminu Warkal, another Kwankwasiyya social media handler who was alleged to have been harassed by the Security operatives.
“The report however indicated that Warkal was invited by the security agency to explain how he defrauded the government of N10 Million.
The Coordinator, appealed to Amnesty International, which was said to have issued a statement alleging harassment of Political opponents in Kano to verify every claim with the spirit of fairness and professionalism before taking a stand to avoid compromising the group’s reputation and credibility.
“That as a respected INGO, Amnesty International should not allow itself to be compromised by anybody, including Kwankwaso.”
The need to investigate and verify claims before rushing to the press is sacrosanct and complementary to the efforts of security agencies towards eradicating the menace of cyberbullying and disrespect for constituted authority.
He said, “Kano is a respected State with People of dignity, integrity, and religious consciousness. No one will be happy to see some misguided individuals sponsored to disrespect elders and leaders. Amnesty International should look at the issues of cyber bullying, stalking, and incitement that clearly violate the law.
