The Kano State Public Complaints and Anti-Corruption Commission has interrogated Isa Bayero, an aide to the Emir of the state, Muhammad Sanusi II.
The state’s anti-graft agency grilled Bayero over allegations of financial misappropriation.
Bayero, who also served as chief aide to Ado Bayero, Sanusi’s predecessor made the disclosure while addressing journalists in Kano about his appearance before the agency.
“When I appeared before the investigating panel, I was presented with some documents which I went through and I requested for more time to study and return them,” he said.
This is coming at a time the state Governor, Abdullahi Ganduje signed a bill into law breaking up the Kano emirate into five.
The move was said to be aimed at reducing the influence of Emir Sanusi in the state.
