Court dismisses alleged bribery case against Ganduje

A federal high court sitting in Kano on Monday dismissed a suit filed by a Kano based lawyer Bulama Bukarti.

It was seeking an order of the court compelling the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) to investigate governor Abdullahii Umar Ganduje for allegedly receiving kickback from a contractor.

The judge dismissed the case for lack of evidence.

Bulama had approached the court seeking for an order compelling the EFCC to provide report of its forensic investigation analysis of the said video.

Justice Egwuatu dismissed the case on the grounds that the evidence before the court has not shown that the EFCC has the record of the forensic analysis of the bribery video allegations.
