Police ask owners of found cows, bag to come with proof of ownership

The Kano State Police Command said it has recovered some number of cows wandering around the Ranka Hotoro Quarters in the Tarauni Local Government Area of the state.

The Police Public Relation Officer, Abdullahi Haruna, said this in a statement on Sunday.

Haruna said a Good Samaritan who sighted the wandering cows drew the attention of the Hotoro Police Division to them on July 13th.

“The good Samaritan told the police that while he was on his way to Rakat Hotoro Quarters in Kano, he saw some cows wandering for over three hours.

“On receipt of the report, the residents of the area were contacted and efforts to trace the rightful owners proved abortive,” he added.

The statement similarly said that on July 14, 2023, a driver reported the discovery of a bag which belonged to a passenger he had picked in his commercial tricycle.

“The discovery was lodged at the Hotoro Police Division and all efforts to trace the owner proved abortive,” he said.

The statement advised residents seeking to claim any of the property to visit the office of the Police Public Relations Officer, Police Command, Kano, with proof of ownership.
