Sub-editorThe Kano State government has said some documents used in the corruption trial of former Governor Abdullahi Ganduje were carted away by #Endbadgovernance who invaded the Kano State High Court.
NewsWireNGR reports that the hunger protest in Kano was hijacked by hoodlums who vandalised properties including the State High Court.
During a visit to the damaged court premises, Governor Abba Kabir Yusuf described the vandalization as a staged mission in which the hired miscreants carted away corruption charges documents of Ganduje who is facing multiple charges before the court.
The governor was conducted round the court premises by the Attorney General and Commissioner of Justice, Barrister Haruna Isah Dederi, Chief Registrar of the High Court, Alhaji Abdullahi Ado Bayero, and some judges.
According to the governor’s spokesperson, Sunusi Bature Dawakin Tofa, Yusuf described the vandalization as staged-managed mission in which the hired miscreants carted away corruption charges documents of Ganduje who is facing multiple charges before the court.
“It is very unfortunate that enemies of Kano State hired undesirable elements to vandalized one of the historic public buildings with a mission of averting corruption charges against the Ag. National Chairman of APC and former governor of the state Dr. Abdullahi Umar Ganduje, his family and aides,” Tofa said in a statement.
The statement added that the miscreants destroyed virtually all units of the High Court including the office of the state Chief Judge with loss accruing to more than N1 billion through stealing of office equipment, destroying offices, burning cars and other relevant materials crucial to the dispensation of justice.
