The Kano State Anti-Corruption and Public Complaints Commission has filed new accusations of corruption and maladministration against Abdullahi Ganduje, the former governor of the state.
Muhuyi Magaji, head of the anti-graft commission, announced this on Channels Television’s Sunrise Daily on Tuesday.
He said:
“What is happening now is a tip of the iceberg.
“As I am talking to you, we are investigating a case whereby N51.3bn local government funds were directly taken from the government coffers and sent to other individuals, and we traced it to people.”
“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, 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.”
