Hisbah dismantles fake holy muddy pool site
Meanwhile, Legit.ng also reported that a viral video showing crowds worshipping at a muddy pool in Kano’s Haye community sparked outrage after it was revealed that false claims of the site's holiness misled residents.
Many believed the water had healing powers due to a rumor that the Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) once stepped there, drawing people from far and wide. The Kano Hisbah Board intervened swiftly, dismantling the site and warning the public against falling for such religious misinformation.
