The arrest was in connection with his court case in Kano. On the 23rd of March, policemen similarly raided Muhuyi’s house in Kano in search of documents about how he served as the anti-corruption chairman when he was in office.

It could be recalled that Rimingabo was also suspended in July last year when he insisted to investigate a contract that is been handled by the family of the governor, this annoyed the first family and they wrote to the Kano State house of assembly to suspend and prosecute him. He later produced a letter claiming to be from the national hospital which was later proved to be fake.
