Again, Kano files new corruption charges against Ganduje 

Kano State Anti-Corruption and Public Complaints Commission has announced new plans to unveil new charges and against Former Kano State governor, Dr Abdullahi Ganduje.

The commission’s chairman, Bar Muhuyi Magaji said they have uncovered another fresh allegations of diverting public funds in the tune of N51.3 billion from the joint local government account, which was allegedly issued to unauthorized individuals.

Bar Muhuyi made this known during Channels Television’s Sunrise Daily programme on Tuesday, where he allegedly said the Ganduje administration withdrew N1 billion monthly from state joint account before its tenure ended in May 2023, purportedly for road renovation, but diverted to Bureau de Change operators instead.

“We have filed a series of cases. We have a case whereby N1bn in April last year (2023) was removed from government coffers under the allocation of renovating 30 roads in the metropolis, and it was taken away and sent to Bureau de Change.

“We have a case of N4bn whereby it was sent from the consolidated revenue account of Kano State to an agricultural company. All these cases are before the court,” he said.

First Post had reported plans by the state government to arraign Ganduje, his wife, son, and six others for allege bribery.
