According to him, Hantar Daba, who the Kano police command had placed a bounty of N500, 000 reward for whoever would find him, was handed to the police command by his mother.
“Hantar Daba surrendered himself in the company of his mother and his topmost former rival now bosom friend, Abba Burakita of Dorayi, to the Police Command.
“The good news is that, Hantar Daba, who has been on the run for alleged crimes finally surrendered himself to the police,” Kiyawa said.
The police spokesperson said that any person or group of people that had anything against Daba should come forward to the Police.
