Kano State Police Command is investigating the death of 13-year-old Junior Secondary School boarding student Maimuna (Sani) Salisu, of St. Louis Secondary School in Kano. According to reports, the investigation follows allegations and concerns about inconsistent accounts of how she died while at the school. The police say they received a petition dated June 17, 2026, which prompted the inquiry. Police communications also indicate that the case is being reviewed to determine the circumstances surrounding the death. While details of the student’s death are limited across the reports, both outlets describe the same core development: the police are treating the matter as a matter for investigation rather than drawing conclusions immediately. The police investigation is ongoing, and authorities have not been reported as releasing findings or official conclusions at the time of the reports.
