Sankara has since denied the allegation, threatening to sue the corps.
Addressing journalists at his office on Monday evening, Commander-General of Kano Hisbah Corps, Sheikh Aminu Ibrahim Daurawa, said the commission had been waiting for the suspended commissioner for hours but he failed to appear, leaving Hisbah with no other option than to declare him wanted.
He said although Sankara was released on administrative bail, he had ordered his men to be on the lookout for him.
“The work of Hisbah is reconciliation and if reconciliation fails, then we take them to the court and in this case, Nasiru Bulama is accusing him of having an affair with his wife and we asked them to come for reconciliation meeting but he is still not here,” Daurawa said.
Bulama said he learnt that Sankara is busy trying to get a restraining order from a High Court to stop Hisbah from arresting him.
The aggrieved husband appealed to the Kano state government and Emir of Kano, Alhaji Muhammadu Sanusi, to intervene and ensure justice is served.
Sankara’s travail began when the news of his alleged affair with Tasleem Baba Nabegu, who is married with two kids, broke on Friday.
Giving an update on the situation, Abba Sufi, a top Hisbah official, had said, “Yes, it is true we have arrested Auwal Danladi Sankara, a Jigawa Commissioner, with a married woman in an uncompleted building that belongs to him.
“Unknown to him, we were tracking him based on reports we received against him.
“Nasiru Bulama filed the complaint with the Kano State Police Command, the Department of State Services (DSS), and the Hisbah Board, alleging Sankara’s involvement in illicit sexual activities with his wife. We have been having problems with Sankara because he is operating illicit drugs Centers in the names of hotels with prostitution and drug addiction activities.”
