Aliyu Sa’ad, a 25-year-old man, who pleaded guilty to calling his friend gay, has been jailed. A Sharia Court in Kano State on Thursday ordered that the man be remanded in a correction centre. The Judge, Malam Umar Lawal-Abubakar, gave the order following a guilty plea entered by Sa’ad. Lawal-Abubakar adjourned the matter until July 3 for summary trial. Earlier, the Prosecution Counsel, Insp Abdullahi Wada, told the court that the defendant committed the offence on Monday at about 8 p.m.
Wada also said the defendant called the complainant, Malam Ahmed Khamis-Ahmed unprintable names following an altercation. The prosecutor said the offence contravened the provisions of Section 188 of the Sharia law of Kano State.
