A magistrate court in Kano has ordered the remand of popular TikTok content creator, Ashiru Idris, widely known as Mai Wushirya, for allegedly posting “indecent videos” with a dwarf woman.
The presiding judge, Halima Wali, ordered Mai Wushirya to be held at a correctional center for two weeks, pending further hearing on the matter.
Arrest and Violation of State Law
The social media influencer was arrested last week by officials of the Kano State Censorship Board after viral videos captured him engaging in what the authorities labeled as “immoral and demeaning acts.”
According to the board’s spokesperson, Abdullahi Sani Sulaiman, the controversial clips violated state laws prohibiting the production and circulation of obscene or sexually suggestive content.
Following the court session, Sulaiman confirmed the remand order and added a key detail about the proceedings:
“The court has also ordered his partner to appear in court before the hearing continues.”
