Following the prompt intervention of the Kano State Police Command, a 22-year-old man, Abba Ahmed, who earlier threatened to commit suicide if Hanan, the daughter of the President, Muhammadu Buhari, did not marry him, has shelved the plan. Kano police spokesperson, DSP Abdullahi Haruna, said the police counselled Ahmed against the plan and he rescinded on his planned suicide decision.

Haruna said, “We were able to invite Abba Ahmed to the police command. He was counselled by the Force PRO, DCP Frank Mba, as well as Kano CP, Habu Sani, and the command’s imam, SP Abdullkadir Haruna, via a virtual session, at the end of which he rescinded his earlier decision to hang himself. He regretted his comments that if he did not marry the President’s daughter, Hanan, he would hang himself.”

Ahmed was quoted by Haruna as saying, “I realised that my intention is not healthy. Henceforth, I will never again attempt to find myself in such a situation.”

Meanwhile, Hanan on Friday got married to Turad Sha’aban. The ceremony, which was held inside the Presidential Villa, Abuja, was said to be “strictly private.” The President’s wife, Aisha, took to her Instagram page, @aishambuhari, to thank God for the success of the ceremony.
