As Christians celebrate Christmas and New Year, Kano State Police Command has banned the use of knockouts and burning tyres during the celebrations in the state.
This was contained in a statement signed by spokesman of the command, Magaji Majiya, and issued to journalists in Kano on Monday.
He, therefore, called on parents and guardians to warn their wards not to engage in either of the act.
