The Kano Public Complaint And Anti-Corruption Commission has hired Mr Femi Falana SAN to head the commission’s counsel in the alleged Dollar video involving former governor Abdullahi Umar Ganduje before the Federal High Court in Kano.

According to Barrister Usman Umar Fari, “Mr Femi Falana SAN has been engaged by the Anti-Graft agency to lead its counsel.”
