Emir Sanusi Under Probe Over Alleged Corruption,daughter's Dressing Criticized. by iammolahs(m): 8:45am On May 11, 2017 |
Kano state House of Assembly constituted
a panel to investigate alleged corruption in
the emirate
- The panel will report in two weeks
- Emir Sanusi was criticised for asking his
daughter to represent him at an event
The Emir of Kano, Mallam Muhammadu
Sanusi, is under investigation as the Kano
state House of Assembly constituted an eight
man committee to probe the alleged
misappropriation of fund by the emirate.
The Punch reports that Alhaji Ibrahim Gama
who is representing Nasarawa local
government raised a motion of urgent public
importance. Gama expressed disappointment at statement
credited to the emir that the Governor
Abdullahi Ganduje-led administration wasted
a month in China over the light rail project.
He said: “The statement from the emir is
capable of not only tarnishing his image, but
that of the state government and the
Assembly.
“During his speech in Kaduna, the monarch
alleged that the Kano State governor and his
entourage, including me as the Chairman of
the House Committee on Works, wasted one
month in China, seeking loan to construct a
rail project.
“The emir’s statement was false. We spent only
four days in China and our visit was to find
out the capability of the company to handle
the rail project.
“His allegation has caused a lot of insult to me,
the state government, as well as the House of
Assembly by the general public – in and
outside the state.”
He also criticised the emir’s decision to send
his daughter to represent him at the
#BringBackOurGirls programme saying it had
not happened in the tradition of the emirate
before.
“There are many responsible emirate council
members who can represent him at the
programme. This is the first time we are
seeing such in the historical traditional home.”
Gama also criticised the dressing of the
emir’s daughter insisting it was an
embarrassment to Kano people while also
accusing Sanusi of introducing religious
issues contrary to Islam.
The Speaker, Alhaji Kabiru Rurum,
constituted a committee to investigate the
allegations within two weeks and report back
to the Assembly and it was headed by the
member representing Warawa Local
Government, Alhaji Labaran Abdul.
Meanwhile, the Arewa Consultative Forum
met in Kaduna over the rising tension
between the emir and Governor Ganduje.
In a communiqué issued at the end of the
meeting, it said the tension can affect the
unity of the region.
“The attention of the leadership of the Arewa
Consultative Forum has been drawn to the
simmering crisis between the Kano State
and the Kano Emirate Council.
“However, the ACF is aware of the peace
initiative brokered by the Northern States’
Governors Forum in Kaduna and hope that the
decisions taken would continue to be respected
in the interest of peace and stability of the
North and Nigeria in general.
“ACF urges all outside interest groups to desist
from fanning the embers of discord.”
