court. He said that members of the Hisbah corps also
arrested “deviant youths’’ during the festivities. Yola said that apart from those arrested for
prostitution, more than 40 male and female
youths were also picked up during the festive

board made sure that they had clean haircuts
before they were released. (NAN)
