Over 5,000 street children in Kano, Nigeria, are being evacuated due to economic hardship and security concerns. The Hisbah, Kano’s Islamic Sharia police, are conducting raids to relocate these children, many of whom are from broken homes or almajiri schools, to a rehabilitation camp. This initiative aims to provide psychosocial support, education, or vocational training before repatriation or reintegration into society. However, past similar efforts have proven unsuccessful, with children repeatedly returning to the streets. The current approach emphasizes rehabilitation prior to release, hoping to achieve lasting change.
