The Kano State Hisbah Corps has asked a radio station to stop using the ‘Black Friday’ tag in the state.

Black Friday is usually the fourth Friday of November where retailers make prices of goods relatively cheaper for customers ahead of Christmas season.

In a letter dated November 26 and addressed to the manager of Cool FM in Kano, Abubakar Ali, an official of Hisbah on behalf of the commander-general, said the majority of the inhabitants of the state are Muslims who consider the day as “holy”.

Ali told the manager that on that basis, the radio station should stop using the tag “Black Friday” with immediate effect.

“I am directed to write and notify you that the office is in receipt of a complaint for the conduct of BLACK FRIDAY SALES on 27th November, 2020, instant,” the letter read.

“Accordingly, we wish to express our concern on tagging of the Friday as ‘Black Friday’ and further inform you that the majority of the inhabitants of Kano state are Muslims that consider Friday as [a] holy day.

“In view of the foregoing, you are requested to stop the calling the day as Black Friday with immediate effect and note that Hisbah corps will be around for surveillance purposes with a view of avoiding occurrence of any immoral activities as well as maintaining peace, harmony and stability in the state. Best regards.”
