EFCC, CCB Summon Kano Anti-Graft Commission’s Head Over ‘Gandollar’ Videos
By Husain Ibrahim Sulaiman, Kano
The Economic and Financial Crimes Commission, EFCC and Code of Conduct Bureau, CCB have invited the chairman of the Kano State Public Complaints and Anti-Corruption Commission, PCACC, Muhuyi Rimingado, for questioning over the commission’s finances.
Mr Rimingado recently said he conducted forensic analysis on videos showing the immediate-past governor of Kano State, Abdullahi Ganduje, allegedly collecting a wad of dollars believed to be a bribe.
Mr Ganduje had obtained an interim order restraining the anti-corruption agency from investigating him, his family and any of his political appointees.
But in what appears a fight back by Mr Ganduje, the EFCC and CCB have simultaneously launched a probe into Mr Rimingado’s activities at the commission.
The EFCC letter, dated August 8, 2023, reads: “The Commission is investigating a case in which the need to obtain certain clarification from your office is imperative.
“2. Given the above, you are requested to kindly release the Director of Finance and Accounts to report for an interview with the undersigned through the Team Leader AFF/TC at Plot 301/302 Institution and Research District Jabi, along Airport Road, Abuja on Monday, 29th August 2023 by 1000hours. He should come along with the following information:
“I. Details of total funds released to your office by the Office of the Accountant General of Kano state from 2019 to 2021 fiscal year.
