The Kano State Police Command says it will play a football match with some repentant thugs as part of an innovative approach to help them transform their lives positively.
The state Commissioner of Police, Muhammed Usaini Gumel, disclosed this on Thursday during a press conference in Kano, while parading 108 suspects arrested for various crimes during the last Sallah celebration.
He emphasised the importance of adopting a different strategy to ensure the rehabilitation and reintegration of former criminals.
“We will develop a different approach to make sure these thugs are changing their lives and becoming better people. We will even organize sports competitions with them. We will play a football match, and we will play an indoor match,” Gumel said.
