This was made known through a statement issued by the board’s spokesman, Lawan Ibrahim, on Monday in Kano, who said the suspects were traced and arrested after the woman lodged a complaint with the board.

The statement said that the married woman had informed the board’s officials that she did not know those sending the messages to her phone.

It said that the Commander-General of the board, Harun Ibn-Sina, ordered full investigation into the matter.

“The board collected the phone numbers from her which led to the arrest of the two men at Unguwa Uku in Tarauni Local Government Area. The young men are between the age of 20 and 21.

“We have summoned their parents to speak with them and for them to pay keen attention on their wards’ way of life to avoid such behaviour in future,” the statement added.
