The Nigeria Police has said the attention of Assistant Inspector-General of Police, Zone One Headquarters Kano, has been drawn to a trending picture on social media, of an Inspector of Police casting vote at the recently conducted Kano state congress of the All Progressives Congress (APC) along with his principal, the state party chairman, Alhaji Abdullahi Abbas.
A statement by the Zonal Public Relations Officer, DSP Abubakar Zayyanu Ambursa, said the Inspector of Police has been identified as Bashir Mohammed of Special Protection Unit, Base One, Kano.
The statement also said the Inspector is attached to Government House, Kano from where he was deployed to work with the said Alhaji Abbas as a security aide.
