Kano Skit Maker, Murja Kunya Arrested While Booking Hotel Rooms For Her Birthday Party

Kano State Police Command has arrested a popular comedy skit maker, Murja Ibrahim Kunya, at Tahir Hotel in the state.

It was gathered that the Kano-based young lady was arrested by the police while trying to book rooms for her guests who came from far and near for her much-publicized birthday bash.

In September last year, a Sharia court had written to the Kano State Commissioner of Police to arrest and investigate Murja Kunya alongside other TikTokers for ‘corrupting the morals of the society.’

Other TikTokers included in the letter are Mr 442, Safara’u, Dan Maraya, Amude Booth, Kawu Dan Sarki, Ado Gwanja, Ummi Shakira, Samha Inuwa, and Babiana.

“Sequel to the complaint lodged by Muhd Ali Hamza Esq, Abba Mahmud, Esq, Sunusi I. Umar Esq, Abba, A.T Bebeji Esq, B.I Usman Esq, Muhd Nasir Esq, L.T Dayi Esq, G.A Badawi & Badamasi Suleiman Gandu Esq, I am directed by the presiding Upper Sharia Court Judge, Bichi Division Kano to write and kindly request you to conduct investigation against the above-mentioned suspects for proper action,” the letter read in part.

KanyiDaily recalls that in November 2022, Kano court sentenced two young men, Mubarak Isa and Nazifi Bala, to 20 strokes of the cane and 30 days of community service for making a TikTok comedy skit on the state governor, Abdullahi Ganduje.
