Garba accused Dakata of hiding behind his 'briefcase' Non-Governmental Organizations (NGOs) to launch attacks on the former administration in the state.

The immediate past Commissioner for Information and Internal Affairs in Kano State, Muhammad Garba, has labelled as “mere gimmickry” a recent call made by Kabiru Dakata of the Movement Against Corruption (MACIN), urging President Bola Tinubu to distance himself from the former governor of Kano state, Abdullahi Ganduje.

Responding to the call by MACIN on Sunday, Garba said Dakata is being funded to tarnish Ganduje’s reputation in the eyes of Nigerians. Garba accused Dakata of hiding behind his ‘briefcase’ Non-Governmental Organizations (NGOs) to launch attacks on the former administration in the state.

“Dakata was recently seeking attention in the media and aiming for a possible appointment in the NNPP government in Kano. His newfound alliance with the NNPP government discredits him even as an analyst on current affairs, where he frequently features on radio programs to criticize the former administration in the state,” Garba said.

He further warned the public, especially the NGO community to be vigilant of individuals who are being paid to operate fake organizations with the intention of discrediting individuals, governments or organizations.

Garba cited an example of similar incidents in 2019, which according to him; fake NGOs emerged to discredit the Kano gubernatorial elections by sharing fabricated images of violence. Garba claimed that Dakata had recently appeared on a popular television station, allegedly sponsored, to justify the NNPP’s demolition activities in Kano.

Garba emphasized that President Tinubu and Ganduje shared a common vision & experience in governance and development, which is why they are frequently seen together.

He noted that despite efforts to create a rift between them and hinder Ganduje’s chances of obtaining a political appointment from the President, the two leaders have remained united. The former Commissioner concluded noted that both Tinubu and Ganduje are currently attending an ECOWAS Summit in Guinea Bissau.

In response to Garba’s comments, Dakata denied the allegations, stating, “I am not being funded to discredit Ganduje or anyone else. My criticisms are based on my personal convictions and concerns for the betterment of Kano state. I have no hidden agenda or ulterior motives.”

The Movement Against Corruption (MACIN) also released a statement defending Dakata and reaffirming its commitment to promoting transparency and accountability in governance.

Garba emphasized that President Tinubu and Ganduje shared a common vision & experience in governance and development, which is why they are frequently seen together.

He noted that despite efforts to create a rift between them and hinder Ganduje’s chances of obtaining a political appointment from the President, the two leaders have remained united.

The Economic and Financial Crimes Commission has confirmed the authenticity of the video showing the Kano State Governor, Umar Ganduje, allegedly receiving millions of dollars as bribe.

SATURDAY PUNCH gathered that forensic analysis of the video showing Ganduje receiving bribe from a contractor indicated that the video was not digitally cloned as claimed by some of his loyalists.

You are one of the staunch defender of the criminal here on this forum, hence logic demands you give a concrete explanation for this unholy criminal association between Gandollar and Bola Tinubu to the viewing/reading public.

Were you lots not criticising corruption under the previous government then wants to hide Tinubu’s own? You must be a joker!
