<p>Thousands of youths flooded the streets of Kano city on Thursday, staging a peaceful protest in support of the state’s Commissioner of Police, CP AI Bakori. The demonstrators, largely indigenous to Kano State, carried placards and banners with slogans such as “CP Kano Must Stay,” “Kano People Love CP,” and “Governor Abba Kabir Yusuf, Leave CP Alone.”</p>
<p>The protest comes in the wake of a controversial call by Governor Abba Kabir Yusuf during Nigeria’s 65th Independence Day commemoration last Wednesday.</p>
<p>In his address, the governor urged President Bola Ahmed Tinubu to remove CP Bakori, citing the police command’s absence from the ceremonial parade as a sign of disrespect and political interference.</p>

<p>However, the governor’s remarks appear to have sparked widespread public disapproval, particularly among Kano’s youth. Thursday’s demonstration was marked by calm and order, with protesters emphasizing their desire for CP Bakori to remain in office and continue his duties without political obstruction.</p>
<p>“This is not about politics. It’s about fairness and respect for someone who has served our state with integrity,” said one protester, holding a placard that read “Kano Stands with CP.”</p>

<p>Observers noted that the protest signals growing public concern over perceived political interference in security affairs. The demonstrators warned against using law enforcement agencies as tools for political rivalry, stressing the importance of stability and impartiality in governance.</p>
<p>Despite the tension, the protest concluded without incident, and no clashes were reported. The youth-led movement has added a new layer to the unfolding political dynamics in Kano, as calls for dialogue and restraint grow louder.</p>
<p>As the situation develops, all eyes remain on the federal government’s response and the future of CP AI Bakori’s tenure in Kano State.</p>
