Nigeria, April 24 -- A musician, Jamilu Sa'idu, has petitioned the Inspector-General of Police, Kayode Egbetokun, over his alleged harassment by the police in Kaduna State.

Mr Sa'idu, popularly known as Dan-Masukudi, through his lawyer, Ajayi Olowo, alleged that the police in Kaduna under the directives of Commissioner, Musa Garba, were hunting, trailing and intimidating him and his family.

The singer had criticised Governor Uba Sani in his new track titled 'In Bazaka Iyaba Kasauka' (resign if you cannot govern). The music is widely viewed as a jibe at the governor following his complaint about the debts he inherited from former governor Nasir El-Rufai.
