Kano Assembly summons Governor Ganduje over bribe video

The investigative committee set up by the Kano State House of Assembly to investigate video clips showing Governor Abdullahi Ganduje receiving bribe, has summoned the governor to appear before it on Friday.

In a video clip published by Daily Nigerian, an online newspaper few weeks ago, the governor was seen collecting an alleged part payment of $1m bribe from an unknown contractor.

Mujtafah Adamu, the secretary of the seven-man ad-hoc Committee, disclosed this in an interview with the News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) on Thursday in Kano.

He said the committee had invited the governor via a letter of Oct. 31.

Recall that the publisher of Daily Nigerian, Jaafar Jaafar, who on Oct. 25, appeared before the committee, had insisted that the published video clips were genuine and not a doctored document.
