Kano State Governor, Abba Yusuf, on Wednesday, undertook an on-the-spot assessment of the Kano State High Court, which was vandalised, looted and razed amid the recent nationwide hunger protest, which turned violent in parts of the North.
Yusuf, during the tour, regretted the invasion and destruction of the state high court by hoodlums, lamenting that “the hired miscreants carted away corruption charges documents on former Governor of Kano State, Abdullahi Umar Ganduje, who has been facing multiple charges before the state high court.”
According to a statement on Wednesday by the governor’s spokesperson, Sanusi Tofa, the governor was conducted round the court premises by the state’s Attorney General and Commissioner for Justice, Haruna Dederi, the Chief Registrar of the high court, Alhaji Abdullahi Bayero, and some judges.
“It is very unfortunate that enemies of Kano State hired undesirable elements to vandalise one of the historic public buildings with a mission to subvert the corruption charges against the acting National Chairman of the APC and former governor of the state, Dr. Abdullahi Umar Ganduje, his family and aides,” Yusuf was quoted to have said.
