The Federal High Court sitting in Kano has ruled that the Kano Public Compliant and Anti-Corruption Commission, PCACC, has no power to probe the immediate-past governor, Abdullahi Umar Ganduje over the viral dollar bribery video.

The presiding judge, Justice Abdullahi Liman while delivering his judgement on Tuesday, said the offence is a federal offence that can be prosecuted by the Attorney General of the Federation and Economic and Financial Crimes Commission, EFCC.

Meanwhile, speaking with newsmen shortly after the judgment, the counsel to anti-graft agency, Usman Umar Fari said they will challenge the judgment at the Court of Appeal.
