n Borno State have shaved off the hair of some youths in the state for being "unIslamic."

They were also punished for dressing in ways the officials consider to be offensive to Islam.
According to the state deputy commandant, Mallam Abdurrahaman Musa, the Islamic police decided to shave their hair because the hairstyle was against "the norms and values of the people of Borno State."
Despite condemnation from Nigerians, the Hisbah group has continued its push for an Islamic agenda in the North.
The agency, established to enforce Sharia law has banned stylish haircuts, sagging of trousers, playing of music at social events by disk jockeys and tricycle riders from adorning their vehicles with pictures considered to be obscene and against the tenets of Islam in some states in the North.
A barber and his customers were in 2021 arrested in Kano State for giving and having haircuts which were considered to be offensive to Islam.
