Kano Govt Bans Women, Men, From Swimming Together In The Same Pool

The Kano State Government has banned men and women from swimming together in the same pool, smoking shisha, and has also banned entry of children into hotels.

These laws were enforced by the state’s Task Force on Tourism Development Levy.

The committee further reviewed the laws regulating hotels, restaurants and event centres in the state.

The Chairman of the Committee, Baffa Babba Dan-agundi, mentioned this following a meeting with the owners of hotels, restaurants and event centres to inform them of the new development.

He stated that this will be effective in avoiding acts of prostitution in the state.

According to him, “Part of our term of reference is to stop underage children from entering hotels without their parents, banning shisha smoking, swimming between men and women in the pool, lesbianism, and gay practices.

“The committee will further oversee the activities of DJs at wedding ceremonies and event centres. All events centres should be closed by 11 pm.”
