The Emir of Bichi, Nasir Ado-Bayero, had earlier inaugurated a 145-man committee to facilitate a hitch-free wedding Fatiha which will hold on August 20.
Part of the preparations for the wedding Fatiha involved a bridal shower for Zahra, who wore a western-style white gown to the event held on Tuesday in Abuja.
Speaking with BBC Pidgin, the Kano Commander General of Hisbah, Harun Ibn-Sina, said the Emir’s daughter “is not above the law, and failed to set a good example to other Muslims.”
Ibn-Sina forbade people from sharing the photographs and videos from the event, saying it was sinful to do so.
Princess Zahra Ado-Bayero had earlier appeared in an expensive and western-style dress which elicited mixed reactions from Nigerians in view of her religious background.
