ISLAMIC VALUES: Social Media Mock Kano Hisbah Board Over Black Friday ‘Letter Of Notification’—–Nigerians on social media have reacted with outrage over a directive by the Kano State Hisbah Board to 96.9 Cool FM for the broadcast station to stop using the term ‘Black Friday’.
In a letter signed by principal executive officer II Abubakar Ali on behalf of the commander-general, Hisbah stated that Friday is regarded as a holy day in Islam and tagging it as ‘black’ is derogatory and would not be condoned.

Kano Hisbah told CoolFM to cancel Black Friday.
“Black Friday” is to promote sales and give people cheap offers. It helps businesses. It helps ordinary people.
Same way “sunday sales” has nothing to do with christianity, “black friday” has nothing to do with Islam.
Thank you.

Kudos to the Principal Executive Officer of @KanostateNg Hisbah Police for choosing to embarrass himself in a "Letter of Notofication to the Manger of Cool FM."
In summary, the management of this group are bunch of illiterates.
Hope they will do a research on Black Friday soon. pic.twitter.com/bow6BpKOCC

Dear Hisbah, so Boko Haram and armed Bandits are not your problem, but Black Friday is?
Continue deceiving yourselves
Letter of Notofication ko, Totorious Bandits ni.

Kano State Hisbah Board wrote a letter to Cool FM, Kano on their Black Friday Sales, and request to stop calling Friday "Black Friday" with immediate effect because it's "Holy Day" for the Muslims.
