The Kano State Film and Censorship Board has launched a statewide crackdown on tricycle riders displaying obscene images and inappropriate captions on their tricycles.

Grassroots Parrot reports that the action is a renewed effort to uphold public morality and cultural values.

In a statement issued by the Commission’s Public Relations Officer, Abdullahi Sani Sulaiman, the Board confirmed that enforcement teams have already been deployed across major roads and highways in the state to identify and apprehend violators.

Chairman of the Commission, Alhaji Abba El-Mustapha, described the campaign as part of the board’s broader mandate to regulate content in public spaces and ensure that materials considered offensive or culturally inappropriate are not disseminated through commercial or private platforms.

He noted that many of the offensive materials—often displayed on the rear panels of tricycles—contain sexually suggestive images or messages that contradict Kano’s deeply rooted religious and moral values.

Also speaking on the campaign, the Director of Morals, Alhaji Abubakar Zakari Garun Babba, revealed that several motorcycle and tricycle operators have already been found guilty of violating these guidelines.

He said the Board is determined to continue its clampdown until such practices are completely eliminated.

“This is not just about image control—it’s about protecting our cultural and religious integrity,” Zakari emphasized. “We are calling on all commercial riders to immediately remove any indecent or misleading captions from their vehicles to avoid facing sanctions.”

He further appealed to the general public to report tricycles or motorcycles bearing inappropriate content, encouraging communal vigilance in preserving societal values.

The Board reiterated its commitment to fostering a morally sound environment and warned that anyone found flouting the new directive would face the full weight of the law.
