- Authorities announced strict enforcement measures including bans on horse riding, car racing, reckless driving, and weapon displays, while calling on residents to maintain peace and caution against subversive elements.
- Inspector General Kayode Egbetokun said police detectives will investigate the Emir's defiance of the ban, though his invitation to Kano for questioning was withdrawn after public backlash.
- The continued Durbar ban and security measures suggest ongoing concerns over public order, with police ready to enforce restrictions to ensure peaceful Eid celebrations in Kano.
