Sheikh Yakubu Musa, a renowned Islamic scholar, has called on the Katsina government to establish a Hisbah board.
The 25 ladies were nabbed during a ‘reap what you sow’ raid, according to Hisbah.
Hisbah has helped reduce alcoholism and prostitution in Kebbi, according to justice minister Abubakar Malami.
Hisbah said the suspects and items confiscated were handed over to the police for further action.
The sector commander said that the special patrol would also focus on public enlightenment, removal of obstructions on highways and stopping vehicle racing.
The moral police said it would go after anyone that engages in “Dj dance, Gala, as well as sale and use of fireworks”.
Jigawa Hisbah Board says it has arrested 61 persons, including 44 women for immorality.
The Hisbah boss also said the board had commenced an investigation into the incident and would invite parents and guardians of those arrested for necessary action.
Most of the cases had been resolved through out-of-court settlements, said the Bauchi permanent commissioner for Hisbah.
On Tuesday, the Jigawa Hisbah Board said it seized no fewer than 1,906 bottles of assorted alcoholic drinks in 2021.
