Following the recent reports about widespread homosexual acts in Hassan Gwarzo College, Kano, the acting Kano State Governor, Hafiz Abubakar, on Friday ordered the shutting down of the College.  The acting governor directed the Private and Voluntary Schools Board to immediately ensure that the order closing the school was implemented. 


In addition, Mr. Abubakar disclosed that the state government had appointed a 14-member committee to investigate the allegations that students at the school engaged in homosexual acts.

The committee, which is headed by a professor, Abubakar Mustapha, is expected to submit its report within two weeks.
