AREWA AGENDA – Zamfara State Governor Bello Mohammed Matawallen Maradun has offered access to EFCC to ransack the property it alleged to have found stashed with a humongous amount of money for laundering through a cash payment of salaries.
This is contained in a statement by Ibrahim Magaji Dosara, Commissioner of Information, Zamfara state sent to Arewa Agenda on Thursday.
Dosara said “the offer became necessary in view of the grand designed connivance by enemies of Zamfara state and vanguards of disruption to rupture the hard-earned reputation and progress of the Governor.”
He further stated that “to demonstrate the commitment of the state government in this direction, the Gov has already directed his attorneys to officially communicate to the agency this offer and list of demands in this direction, including retracting the fake news by the SaharaReporters against his person.”
