Amoo said: “The national leadership of NANS have been monitoring the fight against corruption by President Buhari.

“NANS also watched series of video clips on internet, which are real time and undisputed facts establishing the high level of corruption excesses of the governor of Kano State, Abdulahi Ganduje.

“No doubt, the videos have proven beyond any excuse nor doubts of acceptance of the allegations.

“NANS has waited patiently enough for President Buhari to take up this highly disgracing and country’s integrity attacking acts from the governor."

Amoo appealed to the president follow in footsteps of his predecessors who punished their beloved loyalists believed to have been corrupt.

This, he said, would enhance President Buhari's fight against corruption.

“NANS recalls during the days of former President Olusegun Obasanjo, a serving Governor of Bayelsa State, Depriye Alamieseya, was accused of corruption, money laundering, he was impeached and sent to jail.

“A strong PDP chieftain, Bode George was alleged of corruption, found guilty and sent to jail. Tafa Balogun, an Inspector General of Police was also sent to jail.

“As such, NANS implores President Muhammadu Buhari to emulate his predecessors in putting an end to corruption,’’ he said.

Amoo, however, called on President Buhari to as a matter of national and international interest subject Ganduje to necessary investigations on the allegations.

Recall that Legit.ng had reported in a similar vein that the Socio-Economic Rights and Accountability Project (SERAP) filed a lawsuit seeking that the court compel President Muhammadu Buhari to launch an investigation into allegations of bribery against Ganduje.

SERAP confirmed the legal move in a statement that was released and signed on Sunday, December 9, 2018 by its senior legal adviser Bamisope Adeyanju.

The statement claimed that President Buhari failed to order the probe after widely circulated video clips emerged, allegedly showing the governor receiving a bribe.
