The new governor of Kano State, Abba Kabir Yusuf, said his predecessor, Abdullahi Umar Ganduje, will answer to some of his administration’s financial dealings and government properties sold while he was in charge.
Yusuf made this known in two of the executive orders he issued after his inauguration on Monday.
“It is so disheartening that the government left a debt profile of over N241billion for us. Where are we going to source the money the IGR they talk about is nothing to write home about.
“The money they realized through Kano Internal Revenue Service was nothing to write home about. Why the use of so many consultants? Just like rain conduit for the resources of people Kano State. We are going to look at it. I am not satisfied!” he said on the issue of money.
In respect of land matter, the new sheriff in town remarked, “I am announcing, today, that all these public places and assets that were immorally plundered and sold by the Ganduje administration should be taken over by law enforcement agencies, led by the Police, the DSS, Civil Defense, and Hisbah pending the final decision of government.”
