A Federal High Court sitting in Kano has dismissed an alleged bribery suit against Governor Abdullahi Ganduje, for lack of evidence.
The suit was filed by a Kano-based lawyer Bulama Bukarti.

However, Justice Egwuatu ruled that even though where the affidavit deposed to, is not countered, it is deemed admitted,the evidence therein must be cogent and verifiable.
