Another Video Of Gov Ganduje ‘Receiving Bribe’ Surfaces [VIDEO]
Following his threat to sue the news website that released a video of him allegedly receiving contract kickbacks, Governor Abdullahi Ganduje of Kano State is seen in another video allegedly receiving bribe.
The Daily Nigerian, which released the first video where Ganduje was seen receiving chunks of dollars believed to bribe from a contractor, has released yet another video on the governor Monday.

In the new video, Governor Ganduje was seen pocketing several bills of $100 dollar notes while putting some in a white envelop.
The identity of the person handing the supposed contract kickback to the governor could not be immediately determined.
Meanwhile, in reaction to the first video that gained wide circulation over the weekend, the kano State government said it “has decided to file a criminal case against an online publication Daily Nigerian and its publisher on defamation of character after it released a clone and doctored video footage mischievously portraying Governor Abdullahi Umar Ganduje involved in an inappropriate conduct.
“The Office of the Attorney General and Commissioner for Justice is challenging the implausible and eccentric posting of the cloned video that went viral in a court of law considering the gravity of the caricature, which indicates the extent to which mischievous elements can go to discredit public figures by wielding non-existent scandals against them.

“A mere observation of the cloned video clearly shows that the video is doctored and disjointed with no material facts or evidance to prove the allegations, other than a callous attempt to tarnish the hard earned image of the office and the person of the Governor.
“The Governor of Kano State wishes to once again emphatically debunk the allegation of receiving gratification of $5Million or any amount whatsoever from any person or body,” read a statement by the State’s Commissioner of Information, Youth and Culture, Mallam Muhammad Garba.
