It is recalled that the defendant is standing trial on a three-count charge of inciting public disturbance, belonging to a criminal gang and criminal intimidation.

It is also recalled that “The defendant in one of her videos on Tiktok which went viral said she is the leader of all prostitutes in the city”

While delivering the ruling, Justice Yusuf-Ahmad, ordered that the defendant be taken to a public hospital to ascertain her mental health due to suspected drug influence.

According to the Judge, “The defendant’s previous appearance shows she is allegedly not in a sound state of mind due to suspected drug influence.

He then stated that “The Hisbah board should be updating the court from time to time on her well-being for three months”

The Judge then adjourned the matter until May for a hearing.

Earlier, the Prosecutor, Barrister Aliyu Abideen, said the Kano State Hisbah Board arrested the defendant after receiving several complaints from members of the public.
