The planned arraignment of the National Chairman of the All-Progressive Congress (APC), Abdullahi Ganduje, has been stalled due to the Kano State government’s inability to serve criminal charges against him.
Counsel to the Kano State government, Y. A. Adamu informed the court of their failure to serve the respondents personally, thereby halting the proceedings.
He also failed to move an exparte motion application, seeking to serve the respondents through substituted means as Justice Usman Na’abba adjourned the matter till 29th April 2024 for further proceedings.
Ganduje, his wife, Hafsat Ganduje, his son, Umar Abdullahi Umar, and five others, were slated to face eight counts of charges including a $413,000 bribery allegation, and the diversion and misappropriation of funds amounting to N1.38bn.
