Since this administration is one that prides itself on total war against corruption, irrespective of whose ox is gored.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe wholeheartedly call for EFCC intervention by setting up a comprehensive investigative panel over this matter while the Kano state House of Assembly should wade in by commencing an impeachment process on the governor to save the state any further embarrassment and prove its own innocence over this unholy act.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThis scandal equally afford the President Muhammadu Buhari\u2019s administration a unique opportunity to prove to Nigerians the truism of his inaugural phrase of \u2018having no friends or enemies whenever the issue concerns the national interest of the nation.\u201d\n<\/p><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Centre for Anti-Corruption and Open Leadership, CACOL, has called on the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission, EFCC, to probe the video clip that has since gone viral, showing the Governor of Kano state, Abdullahi Ganduje allegedly receiving $5m (Five Million US Dollars) bribe.
