The Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) has stated why it is not probing Kano State Governor, Abdullahi Ganduje, over allegations of corruption.

Mr Ganduje has been seen recently in series of video clips receiving wraps of dollars from an undisclosed person.

Daily Nigerian, the news portal which published the videos alleged that the governor was receiving kickbacks from contractors of the state government in the video clips.

The Kano State Assembly probing the matter has so far suspended its investigation due to court injunctions instituted by the governor who has so far denied the allegation saying the videos showing him receiving bribe were cloned.

For the anti-graft agency, Ganduje still enjoys immunity as benefits of being in office and this has made the commission turn a blind eye to the allegation.

“The governor is still serving and constitutionally is covered by immunity,” the EFCC tweeted on Friday during a tweet meet organised by Tap Nitiative for Citizens Development, a public accountability think-tank.

“Being that as it may, the matter is in the instance sub judice.”

When asked why the commission probed former governor of Ekiti State, Ayodele Fayose while he was still in office, the EFCC said it does not make public its findings of investigation.

While Fayose belongs to the opposition Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), Ganduje is of the ruling All Progressive Congress, (APC).

“The EFCC normally doesn’t give out information on investigations,” the handle said.

“Investigation of anyone for an alleged fraud remains a covert process,” it added.

According to the online publication, the videos recorded in 2017 was aimed at beaming the spotlight on the governor’s alleged penchant for contract racketeering.

The medium said it has about 12 of the clips with six of it already in the public domain. A court injunction has halted the release of the remaining videos.

The anti-graft agency had last week skipped questions when asked its position of the video when the acting chairman of the commission, Ibrahim Magu, celebrated 3 years in office.

President Muhammadu Buhari has described Ganduje as a responsible fellow in the midst of the allegation.

Let them keep deceiving themselves.

A different law applies to Fayose because he is in PDP while Gaduje is a Next Level Champion.

Nigeria we hail thee

good

The Nigerian system of government is solely designed to favour and protect thieves
Which kind of nonsense is Immunity

Mtschww
Spits

However far lies run, truth will always catch up. These double standards will surely end come February 2019.

But while Fayose was still enjoying Immunity, you took him to court, freeze his account, freeze the account of the state govt, issue travel ban and enlisted him in Security Watch List........

You guys are undignified.

You guys are inglorious.

Fastly becoming the errand agency of a grossly incompetent and visionless government.

Shame on you.

Wow! EFCC Chai! Why did you investigate Fayose, Udoh and Benue state governor?

Efcc and hypocrisy are like twins.. Why not give him the same treatment that given to fayose when he was in office oh I forgot that he still a saint until defected to another then his sins will be made known to the public.

Hmmm.... but he said the video was photo shopped and edited even when it's glaring to everyone..

-1)."President Muhammadu Buhari......has mentioned that Kano State governor, Umar Ganduje is a responsible leader despite allegations of the governor receiving bribes putting his position in question...."

-2)."...Ganduje Also, a high-ranking member of the state chapter of party claimed the alleged dollar bribes were donations made for political campaigns in the state...."

-3).“Personally I would like to see the contractor come out and say ‘yes I am the one and I gave him so and so amount’. I would like to see that but that has not yet happened.

In any case, when it comes to the investigation of the governor, I think we have institutions that have been established for that. We have the EFCC particularly for that.

EFCC failed to probe Maina, Oshiomole,Abba Kyari, Aisha Buhari among many high profile APC corruption but continue to target the opposition because of its overt bias nature.

EFCC of course cant prosecute Gov.Ganduje for now but nothing stops it from investigating this sleazy dollar bribe taking scandal and thereafter prosecute him when his tenure ends in 2019.

Of course Buhari's endorsement of Gov.Ganduje despite his corruption moral baggage is responsible for this belated but overtly bias response by the EFCC.What a shame!

Continue! Whatsoever goes around not only comes around but also stays around.Karma is a real.

lol ...

& some retarded toddlers claiming to be grown, sensible men would come here to spew trash claiming how the so called anticorruption fight is holistic...


like I always say, you can't be a buharideen & have s conscience... it is an anathema...

We can’t get better at all

Bit before fayose left the government,you guys were through in word up and down.Now it comes to you guys,EFCC can't even utter a word concerning it..

Immunity kee you there

This country is doomed

I officially rest my case and henceforth deny my citizenship

Was it another EFCC that froze Fayose's account as a sitting governor, and went as far as putting him on security watch list to prevent him from leaving the country.

Fayose was sent invitation letter to appear at EFCC's office even when his tenure hasn't elapse.

Please, which EFCC froze the account of Benue and Akwa Ibom states.

Less I forgot, it Gambia's EFCC.

APC's double standard in trying corrupt cases would greatly impede their success in the forthcoming general elections.

Immunity be Damned!

Impeachment will constitutionally resolved it.

This is blatantly hypocritical, right in our faces.

How people manage to still support this govt after all these is beyond me.

SMH.

Fayose is no longer a sitting governor. Stop being a fool.

EFCC is fast becoming a liability under Jubril El-Mohammadu Tanko Aminu Al-Sudani...
Atiku will have to privatise EFCC before NNPC. But before that is done, the Jubril and his gang will have to face the rod of EFCC. The imposter must not escape back to Sudan after his defeat.

Only dead brain people don’t know already
