Kano TikToker Murja Kunya arraigned, remanded in prison for ‘immoral acts’
Murja Kunya, the popular TikToker recently arrested by the Kano Hisbah board over alleged immoral acts, has been remanded in prison.
On Tuesday, Aliyu Usman, chairman and officer in charge of operation ‘Kai da badala’ surveillance, said the content creator was arrested on Monday in the Tinshama area of the state.
Usman said Kunya is accused of “immoral acts” and will be arraigned before a Shari’ah court.
“She was arrested yesterday (Monday) late evening at her residence located at Tinshama area. We spent about three hours waiting for her before she finally showed up and we picked her up,” he said.
“She is being charged with immoral acts which she is widely known for. There is someone who every day comes around to pick her around 10 pm and will return her by 12 midnight or 1 am.”
On Wednesday, however, a top Hisbah source confirmed to TheCable Lifestyle that Kunya had been arraigned before the Kano Shari’ah court.
The insider also disclosed that the TikTok user has been remanded in prison and will be re-arraigned on February 20.
“It is confirmed that she has been arrested and arraigned on Wednesday. She has been remanded in prison now. Maybe on the 20 this month she will be back in court. She denied the seven charges against her yesterday,” the source said.
In a now-viral video, Khadija Sagir Sulaiman, one of the officers of Hisbah, wondered why Kunya was released after she had been arraigned last year over the same offence.
Last year, Kunya was remanded in prison for allegedly committing offenses contrary to Islamic teachings.

Chris Brown opens up on dating multiple ladies
Chris Brown, the American singer, has revealed that he is in a polygamous relationship.
Brown, in a YouTube live with Kai Cenat, the US content creator, addressed questions about his personal life.
When asked if he was in a relationship, the 35-year-old Virginia-born artiste replied, “I am in multiple”.
Cenat sought clarification, asking, “Like more than one girlfriend?” Brown responded, “Something like that”.
The award-winning singer also emphasized the importance of transparency and honesty in maintaining his polygamous relationships.
“Just keep it a hundred. Be honest,” he added.
This is not the first time Brown would be addressing polygamy.
In an interview with Hot 97, the singer opened up about the challenges of maintaining a monogamous relationship due to his celebrity status and constant exposure to women.
“The hardest part is trying to keep a monogamous relationship, but still wanting to be the 25-year-old sex symbol,” he said.
“You go to shows. You might walk by somebody’s room, and you might see about six or seven of them thangs. And you’re like, dang, I just want to slide in there and have a couple drinks real quick and I’ll tell my girl about it later.”
Born Christopher Maurice Brown, the songwriter is often referred to by his contemporaries as the “king of R&B”.

Davido advises black Americans not to relocate to Nigeria, says ‘the economy is in shambles’
Davido, the Afrobeats star, has advised black Americans against relocating to Nigeria, citing the country’s economic challenges.
In an appearance on The Big Homies House podcast, the singer shared his thoughts on the struggles bedeviling Nigeria, stating, “It is not cool back home. The economy is in shambles”.
Davido also mentioned Nigeria’s struggles with bad leadership, a high exchange rate, and skyrocketing oil prices, which are negatively impacting the country.
“It is not cool back home. The economy is in shambles. I do my part, I am an ambassador. When I go home and I am filming, I am no going to show the bad parts,” he said.
“I am talking about the situation in the country. Now the exchange rate is messed up, a lot of stuffs are not going well.
“The economy is just not good enough. The oil price is too high. Imagine the country that produces oil, paying more for it than a country importing oil.”
Despite the challenges, Davido emphasised the entertainment industry’s positive impact on Africa’s global image.
“Regardless, entertainment is one of the thing that has made Africa look good. We do not have the best leader, that is a fact,” he said.
