Members of the NNPP Kwankwasiyya Media Forum have submitted a complaint to the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) and the Kano State Anti-Corruption and Public Complaints Commission, accusing some state government officials and the head of the organization of injustice in the distribution of funds provided by the Kano governor for the members.
In a letter signed by Muji Sigan Jingau, Labaran Bage, Zaharadden Kabara, Alhaji Isa Abdullahi, and Rabi’u Eme Yakasai, the group called on the two authorities to investigate the alleged mismanagement of N30 million provided by the Kano governor to support the members of the NNPP Kwankwasiyya Media Forum.
“We heard Governor Abba Kabir Yusuf of Kano state on January 5, 2024, at the Coronation Hall in the Kano Government House stated that he had given N30 million to support the members of the NNPP Kwankwasiyya Media Forum to alleviate their suffering,” the letter reads.
“However, up to this moment, not even a single kobo of the funds has been deposited into the organization’s account, and four individuals—Alhajiji Nagoda (SS Media), Samaila Murtala Zawa’i (SSA Media), the leader of the group Nura Bakwankwashe, and the group’s secretary Ali Gyara Hausawa—are accused of distributing the funds and motorcycles to those they favored, without fairness.”
In the letter dated January 16, 2024, the complainants requested that the authorities investigate the matter to ensure fairness for everyone.
