I have not been transferred to Zamfara, says Kano CP, Wakil Mohammad

LAGOS, Nigeria – The celebrated Commissioner of Police, Kano State, Mr. Mohammad Wakil has said he has not been transferred out of Kano State, contrary to media reports.

He said he decided to stay on the side of the truth because has opted to serve the country and that he has no other country to call his own and that no matter what happened death is inevitable and that we will all render an account of our lives some day.
