Ganduje,
Wife, Others Trial Stalled.
Failure of the Kano State government to serve criminal
charges on the National Chairman of All Progressives Congress, Dr. Abdullahi
Umar Ganduje, on Wednesday, stalled the arraignment of the former governor at
the Kano State High Court.
Ganduje, who was to be arraigned alongside his wife,
HafsatGanduje, his son, Umar Abdullahi Umar, and five others on eight count
charges bordering on bribery allegations, was conspicuously absent in the
court.
When the matter came up before Justice Usman
MalamNa’abba, only the 6th respondent through his counsel, NureiniJimoh, was
present in court while the 1st, 2nd, 3rd, 4th, 5th, 7th, and 8th respondents
were conspicuously absent.
Counsel to the Kano State government, Bar. Ya’u A. Adamu
told the court that they could not serve the respondents personally.
The Presiding judge, Justice Na’abba, however, adjourned
the matter till 29th April 2024 for continuation.
