Bribery video: Kano Assembly invites Gov. Ganduje for questioning

Governor Abdullahi Ganduje of Kano State has been summoned by the state House of Assembly to appear before it on Friday over the bribery videos showing the governor collecting wads of dollars.

The committee said copies of the video clips showing the governor receiving bribes in dollars has been sent to him for ‘perusal,’ adding that the governor can come with his lawyers if he so wishes.

 “You may wish to appear together with your lawyers for the hearing, and enclosed is the copy of the video clips for your perusal.”

Recall that a third video clip had emerged yesterday, showing the Governor who was wearing a black Kaftan, collecting bribe in wads of dollars from a contractor.

Two of similar videos had, before now, been released by the Editor-In-Chief of Daily Nigerian, Jaafar Jaafar, wherein the Governor was shown collecting bribes in dollars and stuffing the wads of money in his white “Agbada” also known as “babariga” cloth.

The governor had denied the videos, saying they were photo shopped.

Mr. Jafar had, last week, honoured the invitation of the Kano State House of Assembly investigating the bribery scandal, where he tendered many other video clips showing the Governor collecting bribes from contractors.

However, after the third video, the Kano state Assembly investigation committee has summoned the Governor to appear before it and explain his culpability or otherwise in the video.

Secretary of the seven-man ad-hoc Committee, Mujtafah Adamu, made this known to newsmen in Kano on Thursday, according to Vanguard.
