The Kano state house of assembly has bowed to pressure has it has stopped its ongoing investigation of the alleged bribery scandal involving the state governor, Abdullahi Ganduje.
A court had ordered that the assembly should stop the probe but its (committee) insisted of continuing with the probe.
But in a swift u-turn, the Chairman of the committee investigating the issue, Baffa Dan Agundi told the court on Monday that the assembly is a law-abiding arm of government, hence, it would obey the court and suspend all forms of investigation on the case pending the court judgement.
Justice Badamasi had in his ruling ordered the House committee to desist from inviting, questioning, interviewing, examining any person related to the issue.
He also instructed the investigative committee to stop any form of analysis on the bribery videos before adjourning the hearing on the matter to Wednesday.
The videos of the governor, who was purportedly ‘seen taking bribe’ from a contractor was released by the publisher of Daily Nigerian (an online news site), Jafar Jafar.
