The Kano State Governor, Abba Yusuf, has urged the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission to release the result of its probe into the alleged dollar bribery video involving immediate-past governor, Abdullahi Ganduje.
Yusuf, in a statement on Sunday by his spokesperson, Sanusi Tofa, said Ganduje should rather be ashamed of himself and prepare to face his trial instead of talking about non-existent failure in 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.
“The administration of Governor Abba Kabir Yusuf emphasised that it would leave no stone unturned to pursue the dollar video scandal to a logical conclusion. He, however, requested the release of the forensic investigation conducted by the Economic and Financial Crime Commission on ‘Gandollar saga’ in 2018, for public consumption,” the statement said.
There has been renewed hostility between Yusuf and Ganduje after Yusuf last week inaugurated two panels to probe Ganduje’s eight-year administration.
Yusuf’s government has also filed criminal charges against Ganduje, his wife, Hafsat, son, Umar, and five others.
In reaction to the development, Ganduje had said his predecessor was chasing shadows, saying the move against him was a diversionary tactic to cover “weak governance” in Kano.
