  • The details obtained during the interaction with Bello, who is the elder brother of Yakubu, revealed that they are indigenes of Sokoto state.

Rariya further reported that the shocking thing was that the said Malam Katune does not have any of his children doing begging, but sent them to standard Islamic school.

The North has been advised to do away with the begging system by minors which exposes the innocent kids to kidnapping, ritual killings and a host of other crimes.

NAIJALOVEINFO calls on the authorities concerned to do something urgent to take Yakubu, Bello and their likes away from the streets, meet their parents and see to their better education and living conditions.
