WATCH: Buhari receives applause as he hails Ganduje amid bribery scandal
November 15, 2018
President Muhammadu Buhari, in his first public reaction to Abdullahi Ganduje’s bribery scandal, hailed the Kano governor as being “very responsible”.
Videos of Ganduje allegedly receiving bribe from contractors handling projects in the state circulated weeks ago.
The governor’s office dismissed the videos as “cloned.”
Buhari, a close ally of the governor, told a group of Nigerians resident in France during his recent visit to the country that Ganduje didn’t sabotage completion of projects.
The President who is aggressively fighting corruption received thunderous applause for his assertion.
