The Kano State Hisbah Board, aka Sharia Police, is set to invite the parents of the 44th Miss Nigeria, Shatu Garko, over their daughter’s ‘illegal’ participation in the beauty pageant.
The 18-year-old Garko become the first hijabi to win the Miss Nigeria pageant since its inception in 1957.
Hisbah noted that it was legal for her to participate in any beauty contest in the Islam religion.
“We (Hisbah) have confirmed that Shatu Garko is a Muslim from Kano state and her parents come from Garko Local government area. Kano is a sharia state and this is why we would not allow the matter to pass.
