The cases were reported throughout the year by individuals seeking help on family disputes, debt issues, child support, and public order concerns, reflecting growing reliance on the board for mediation and enforcement of moral laws.
According to the Deputy Commander of the Hisbah Board, Dr Mujahiddeen Aminuddeen, the agency resolved 1,908 cases through its headquarters in Kano and its offices at the local government level.
