The group explained that the National Chairman of the All Progressive Congress is innocent and being hunted by ill-minded oppositions who want to tarnish his image.
The coalition, in a public report signed by its convener, Dr Okwa Dan, clarified that Ganduje is a victim of a carefully orchestrated malicious campaign that is seeking to bring down his entire legacy..
The Nation reported that the group blames the incumbent Kano governor, Abba Kabir Yusuf, alongside Ganduje’s perennial rival and former godfather, Rabiu Kwankwaso, for what they termed ‘character assassination.’
Dan specifically refuted the viral video that allegedly showed the former governor pocketing a bribe as doctored and unreal.
It said the video clip lacks “authenticity and context” and hence concluded that the recording is not admissible.
He said:
The group urges the public to disregard the probe by the Kano government, stating that Ganduje did not in any way act against established laws while in office.
He concluded:
TimesNow.com.ng had earlier reported that the crisis rocking the APC in Kano state was far from over, as a party chieftain dragged Abdullahi Ganduje to court.
Mohammed Saidu-Etsu wants Ganduje to vacate his seat as chairman of the APC and had also asked the court to declare the former Kano governor’s appointment illegal.
This is coming weeks after Ganduje’s ward executives suspended him over his recent court battles (bribery allegations).
