Despite Multiple Bribe Scandal, Buhari Says Ganduje Is Very Responsible Man
President Muhammadu Buhari has said that the Kano state Governor, Abdullahi Ganduje is a very responsible man, despite the allegations of bribe trailing the governor.
Buhari was quoted to have made the remarks in a video clip as seen on Channels TV, during his encounter with the Nigeria community in Paris, France on Monday, November 12, 2018.
According to the report, Mr. Buhari believes the Kano state governor has done very well to warrant his accolade.
Buhari said that Governor Ganduje has completed so many projects in education and healthcare such that Kano people are now enjoying the benefits.
He said if it were to be another person, the person would have diverted the funds meant for the development of the state for personal use.
“So I commend the governor for doing so much. He once invited me so I went to Kano. The good project started by Kwankwaso in education and healthcare Ganduje completed them.
“If it were another person, he could have diverted the balance of the money to go and contest for presidency instead of completing them. But he (Ganduje) completed the…(projects) and Kano people are enjoying the benefit. I think that it’s very responsible of him. I think he’s done very well.”, Buhari was quoted to have said in the clip.
Recall that President Buhari, who had earlier on spoken for the first time, during an interactive session with Nigerians in France, about the recent bribery allegation against the governor, said that the videos depicting the bribery had been given to security agencies for vetting.
“We gave the videos to security agencies for vetting. And we will surely take action on the matter if he is found guilty,’’ President Buhari reportedly said.
In the videos widely circulated on social media, the governor was seen allegedly receiving kickbacks from contractors to the tune of $5 million.
