Abdullahi Ganduje has been summoned by the Kano State Public Complaints and Anti-Corruption Commission (PCACC) over the dollar videos.
Daily Nigerian, an online publication, had released some videos of Ganduje allegedly collecting kickbacks from contractors in 2017.
In the videos, Ganduje was captured collecting the dollars before rolling them into his white dress, “babanriga”
The ex-governor had denied the allegation, saying the videos were doctored.
But speaking on Wednesday at a one-day public dialogue on ‘Anti-Corruption Crusade in Kano’, Barr. Muhuyi Magaji Rimingado, chairman of PCACC, said the authenticity of the videos had been confirmed.
He said since the release of the footages, people have been challenging him to prove the innocence or otherwise of the former governor in the matter.
He added that his commission commenced investigation in 2018 but could not go far because Ganduje, who was governor at the time, had immunity.
Speaking further at a programme on Thursday, Rimingado confirmed that Ganduje had been invited for questioning.
