The Police in Kano State have arrested a popular TikTok Skitmaker, Murja Ibrahim Kunya, for allegedly corrupting the morals of the society.
It is reported that the 24-year-old was arrested while trying to book hotel rooms for her guests who came from far and near for her much-publicized birthday jamboree.
Daily Post reports that in September last year, a Sharia court had written to the Kano State Commissioner of Police to arrest and investigate Miss Murja Ibrahim Kunya, alongside other 9 Tik Tokers for corrupting the morals of the society.
The letter read in part, “Sequel to the complaint lodged by Muhd Ali Hamza Esq, et al, I am directed by the presiding Upper Sharia Court Judge, Bichi Division Kano to write and kindly request you to conduct investigation against the above mentioned suspects for proper action”.
The 9 other Tik Tokers included in the letter are: Mr 442, Safara’u, Dan Maraya, Amude Booth, Kawu Dan Sarki, Ado Gwanja, Ummi Shakira, Samha Inuwa and Babiana.
Murja, who’s about to be arraigned in court over allegations of ab¥se, obscenity and social media misconduct, made a promise to stop ins¥lts on social media.
When answering the questions about her activities on Social Media which are condemned by the people, Murja said, “Every sane person knows when he does something wrong.” But on allegations of her misbehaving on social media, she said, “First of all, I don’t sing, let alone to say that children can listen to my music to ruin their morals.”
She added, “I am not a woman who uploads obscene songs. Honestly, I didn’t know that the song ‘Cas’ by Ado Gwanja was against the law because the way I saw people using the song (on Tiktok) made me join the song.” Murja went on to say that she first came across Ado Gwanja’s song ‘[email protected]’ on social media and that thousands of people had posted the song before her.
Meanwhile, the commissioner of police, CP Mamman Dauda, ordered that the suspect undergo psychiatric evaluation.
