Bribery case against Ganduje, family intensifies as Kano CJ moves suit to another court

Story from Saleh INUWA, Kano

The corruption case against Abdullahi Umar Ganduje before Kano High Court 4 sitting at Audu Bako presided by Justice Usman Malam Na’abba has been transferred to Court 7 on Miller Road presided by Justice Amina Adamu Aliyu.

Confirming the development, the Public Relations Officer of the Kano State High Court, Baba Jibo Ibrahim, said, “The office of the Chief Justice (CJ) of the state has the power to direct and transfer a case at any stage so far it has not reached the level of judgement.”

It was reported that Ganduje, wife, son and five others were charged with an eight-count bordering on bribery, diversion and misappropriation of funds, among others.
