EFCC grills former Kano state Governor, Rabiu Kwankwaso

Former governor of Kano State, Rabiu Musa Kwankwaso was on Saturday, October 16 grilled by the EFCC over allegations of abuse of office, diversion of public funds and fraudulent allocation of government properties to cronies.

The Chieftain of the Peoples Democratic Party was first invited by the EFCC in September but reportedly failed to honour the invitation.

An associate of the politician told Channels Television that Kwankwanso may have been invited in relation to a petition by some retired employees of the Kano State Government.

The retired employees had claimed that the former governor mismanaged pension remittances to the tune of N10 billion between 2011 and 2015, to fund a housing project for his cronies.
