The First Lady took to her verified Instagram page, to express support for a call by a popular Kano-based Islamic cleric, Mallam Abdalla Gadon Kaya, who called for Tanko’s public execution.
“We are behind mallam’s stance”, Aisha Buhari wrote.
In viral video, Gadon Kaya had charged President Muhammadu Buhari and Kano State Governor, Abdullahi Ganduje, to have “Tanko killed the same way he killed Hanifa.”
Gadon Kaya further that Tanko’s life not better than that of the minor, as such he should be executed publicly.
