Kano Court sets April 17 for ex-Governor Ganduje and family’s bribery arraignment

A Kano State High Court has scheduled April 17, 2024, for the arraignment of former Governor Abdullahi Ganduje, his wife, son, and five others on bribery charges.

They face eight counts, including allegations of bribery totaling $413,000 and misappropriation of N1.38bn. 

Previously, a Federal High Court in Kano ruled against the state’s anti-corruption commission’s jurisdiction to investigate Ganduje over a $5m bribery video, stating it’s a federal matter.

Governor Abba Yusuf called on the EFCC to disclose findings on the alleged bribery, emphasizing Ganduje should focus on his trial instead of criticizing the current administration.

“For whatever option, the Kano State Government would advise the acting National Chairman of APC to show cause why his name, that of his family, and the entire people of Kano should permanently be erased from the global embarrassment that the dollar video has generated,” he said.
