Aisha Says Kano Governor, Abdullahi Ganduje Should Be Sentenced To Death For Collecting Bribe

A leader of the Bring Back Our Girls (BBOG) movement, Aisha Yesufu, has condemned the Kano State governor, Abdullahi Ganduje, for expressing readiness to sign the death warrant of a musician, Yahaya Sharif-Aminu over alleged blasphemy.

KanyiDaily had reported that Governor Ganduje vowed he won’t waste time in signing the execution order of the 22-year-old Kano-based singer, who was sentenced to death by hanging for releasing a song insulting Prophet Muhammad.

Reacting on her Twitter page on Friday, Yesufu the governor should also be sentenced to death for allegedly collecting bribe.

“Ganduje was caught on camera allegedly collecting bribe. In sharia law, any gift to public servant belongs to the state talkless of one caught collecting bribe.

“There is no immunity in sharia law. Ganduje should be the one sentenced to death not signing death warrant.”

KanyiDaily recalls that Governor Ganduje was seen in series of videos receiving bribes from contractors handling projects in the state on several occasions.
