2019: Kano commissioner denies destroying election materials
Addressing a press conference on Thursday in Kano, Garo said the result was destroyed by two members of the People’s Democratic Party , Alhaji Faruk Lawal and Alhaji Nasiru Sule Garo respectively but they were not arrested by the police for reason best known by them.
He said, “An APC agent called and informed me about the development. I quickly informed the deputy governor, who later accompanied me together with Sani and we went there to see by ourselves. That was the purpose we went there but some thugs descended on us and later I, the deputy governor and the chairman were arrested and taken to police headquarters on the allegation that we have torn the result sheet.
“Kwankwaso and some of his people including his orderly escorted us to the police command. And if police denied arresting Kano deputy governor why do they put him behind the canter? And they were there when some boys were insulting us why?”According to him, “the police commissioner is being selective and bias in doing his job. The commissioner should have arrested Faruk Lawal and Nasiru Sule Garo who actually tore Gama ward’s result sheet, but he did not because he is bias and partisan.
