The Kano State House of Assembly has on Wednesday set up an eight-man
committee to investigate the allegations levelled against the Emir of
Kano, Muhammad Sanusi II.
Sanusi has been accused of mismanaging N4 billion he inherited from his
predecessor, Ado Bayero. The palace has since denied the allegation.
Speaker of the 40-man Assembly, Kabiru Alhassan Rurum, who presided over
the sitting, constituted the panel following a point of order by a
member representing Nasarawa constituency, Mr Ibrahim Ahmad Gama.
Mr. Gama said some of the allegations against the former Governor of the Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN), ought to be looked into.
He listed them as spending funds without the approval of the Governor of
Kano, Umar Ganduje, attacking President Muhammadu Buhari’s polices and
sending his daughter to represent him without wearing full traditional
regalia.
Labaran Abdul Madar, the chief whip of the house, will chair the
committee. At press time, the emir is yet to respond to the latest
affront from the lawmakers.
