A group, Kano Concerned Forum, has berated the Kano State government, which seeks to investigate the former Governor Abdullahi Ganduje administration in the state.
Addressing newsmen in Kano, on Wednesday, the secretary of the forum, Comrade Auwal Shu‘aib said,
“Elections are done and dusted. Now is the time to deliver to the Kano people good governance and the dividends of democracy. To bring back an old and expired line of investigating the past administration is tantamount to self-admission of failure.
“If the Gov Abba-led government had a clear roadmap for development, it wouldn‘t be wasting its precious time on frivolous issues of investigating the Ganduje administration and his family.
“Because, Kano people are overwhelmed with existential challenges, like high cost of living, hyperinflation and want.”
It said that it is almost a year since the government took over, but has not achieved a major milestone, and wondered why it is wasting time on what is not tenable.
“Kano people are more concerned about getting them out of the doldrums they are in. Federal government has massively supported the state government to ease the current hardship, we in Kano are waiting to see how the government will bring succour to us.
“Therefore, this needless, politically motivated committee is nothing but vendetta aimed at servicing the ego of some interests within the state,” he added.
Earlier, the forum’s co-convener, Ambassador Abdullahi Mohammed, lambasted the government on the perceived injustice and partiality in setting up the mandate and scope of the committee.
