DailyTrust reports.

The Commander-General of the board, Shaikh Harun Ibn Sina, made
this known in a statement issued on Wednesday.

Shaikh Ibn Sina said the use of mannequins by tailors,
supermarkets and others contravened Islamic injunctions.

He added that the board would embark on sensitisation of the
public to educate them on how Islam frowns at the use of
mannequins.

He said after sensitisation, the board would embark on raiding
of those places to remove the mannequins, describing their use for
advert purposes as idolatry.

“We divided Kano into five areas for monitoring and
implementation of the ban across the state,” he added.
