Lawyer says the suspended anti-corruption agency boss faces 14 years in jail for alleged forgery
“With due respect to Honourable Speaker and honourable House in general, I wish to present a complaint to you that on April 2021, the office of the accountant general released a posting of accounting staff to various ministries and departments including Public Complaint and Anti Corruption Commission.
“Accordingly, this act by rejecting him as head of account of the commission violated section 28 of Kano state financial management law which gives the accountant general power to provide the accounting staff to each government ministries or extra ministerial departments. Copy also attached of the stipulated law.
Other members who supported the suspension of Mr Rimingado were Ali Ibrahim Shanono , Abdullahi Yaryasa , Kabiru Hassan Dashi , and Garba Ya’u Gwarmai . Mr Fari also told journalists that his client could not appear before the house that day because he was undergoing diagnosis at the National Hospital, Abuja.
“The only document that we received is the letter dated the 12th day of July, from the House inviting to appear before the committee without indicating the name of the complainer or the petitioner, the allegation against him, nothing. “There is no patient named ‘Muhuyi Magaji’ in their hospital record and no folder was opened in that name.
