The Executive Governor of Kano State, Rabiu Kwankwaso has lashed at President Goodluck Jonathan over the claim that the government cannot account for the money they received from Federation Account.
Kwankwaso revealed that the money received was spent properly and expenses well documented.
He disclosed this during the All Progressives Congress, APC, stakeholders meeting at the Government House, yesterday.
He added that the President is only trying to judge people by his standard. He boasted that people are contented with the way money is being spent on life-changing, and lasting projects. He said that the projects his government embarked on are verifiable, genuine and extyensive.
He added that his government has been looking for those who lavish and steal government’s money to punish as his government will not encourage corruption.
He said “I challenge anyone, including the President, if he finds anybody who siphoned local or state government’s money to report to me and see what action my administration would take against the offender.”
HE reminded the President that he is not under him but the people who voted him into power.
He said“They are the ones who have the right to query me not President Jonathan, who is known to punish whistleblowers like our respected son, Sanusi Lamido Sanusi.
“In Kano we welcome whistleblowers and commend them for joining hands with government to fight corruption.”
Kwankwaso worded Peoples Democratic Party, PDP over the rally organized in Kano. He revealed that the President had to import people from the neighbouring communities, adding that even his own PDP stakeholders abandoned him.
It could be recalled that Naija Center News published about Hajia Habiba Abubakar who lambasted the President for importing people from other states to grace his rally during his visit to Kano.
He Governor said “These new associates of the President in Kano are not credible people, and do not have any supporters, therefore, they would only contribute to his failure and pave way for the APC to win the 2015 general elections.”
The governor expressed satisfaction with the APC ward and local government elections, describing it “as a step towards capturing the 44 local government areas of the state in the forthcoming elections.”
