The New Nigerian Peoples Party (NNPP) has alleged that Abba Ganduje, son of the Governor of Kano state, Abdullahi Ganduje, is diverting government properties into his campaign.

Abba is the All Progressives Congress (APC) candidate for the House of Representatives (Dawakin Tofa, Rimingado and Tofa federal constituency) in Kano state.

The NNPP chairman, Hon. Umar Haruna Doguwa, in a statement said that the party had discovered that the state government diverted over 30 vehicles from the Kano Internal Revenue Service (KIRS) to the campaign activities of the APC candidate.

The party alleged that the vehicles in question which carried Abba’s image were to be distributed to the APC ward chairmen of Rimingado, Tofa and Dawakin Tofa Federal constituency to checkmate the incumbent, Tijjani Abdulkadir Jobe, who distributed about 20 cars to his party members recently.

The statement further revealed that the said vehicles had been assembled at the temporary campus of Northwest University, Kano, awaiting distribution to supporters of Abba Ganduje.

Reacting to the allegations from the NNPP, KIRS said there was no truth to the claim, warning that they would take legal action to safeguard their hard-earned reputation.

A statement signed by the Head of Corporate Communication, KIRS, Alhaji Rabiu Saleh Rimingado, reaffirmed the statutory responsibility of the revenue service.
