October 16, (THEWILL) – The Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) has grilled a former Kano Governor, Rabiu Musa Kwankwaso.
Kwankwaso, THEWILL gathered, reported to the EFCC in honour of an invitation over allegations of abuse of office, diversion of public funds and fraudulent allocation of government properties to cronies..
According to a source, “Kwankwaso reported to the EFCC today (Saturday) and he is currently being grilled by a team of operatives at the commission’s headquarters Abuja.
”He is being questioned over allegations of abuse of office, diversion of public funds and fraudulent allocation of government properties to cronies.
”Kwankwaso who is also a chieftain of the Peoples Democratic Party was first invited by the EFCC in September but failed to honour the invitation.”
Also, a close associate of the politician said he might have been invited in relation to a petition by some retired employees of the Kano State Government who had earlier petitioned the EFCC, complaining 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.
