The ad hoc committee set up by the Kaduna State House of Assembly, established to review all funds, loans, and contracts given under previous governor Nasir El-Rufai, has presented its findings to the House. Henry Zacharia, the chairman of the ad hoc committee, presented a report during plenary on Wednesday.
The report found that most loans obtained under El-Rufai’s administration were not used for their intended purpose, adding that due process was not followed in some cases. Yusuf Liman, Speaker of the Kaduna House of Assembly, while receiving the report, stated that El-Rufai's government took a total of N423 billion, leaving the state with massive obligations.
The committee, as a result, recommended that El-Rufai and other indicted members of his cabinet be investigated and prosecuted by security and anti-corruption agencies for abuse of office through the award of contracts without due process, diversion of public funds, money laundering, and plunging Kaduna State into deep debt.
