Nigerians warned as lion escapes from Zoo

A lion on Saturday was said to have escaped from its cage at the Kano Zoo.

Governor Abdullahi Ganduje’s media aide, Salihu Tanko Yakasai, disclosed this on his Twitter page on Saturday.

Yakassai warned Nigerians living around the zoo to be vigilant and careful.

He, however, added that the lion was still within the premises of the zoo as authorities were working to capture wild cat.

The post read: “It is true that a Lion in Kano Zoo has escaped and the authorities are doing everything humanly possible to capture it.

“So far, there is no cause for alarm as the lion is still within the premises of the Kano Zoo, but those living within the area are advised to be vigilant.”
