Kano Anti-Graft Czar Arrested by Heavily Armed Officers in Law Firm Standoff

The top anti-graft official in Kano, Muhuyi Rimin Gado, was arrested by heavily armed officers at a law firm in Kano. The arrest, which involved a standoff with bystanders warned not to interfere, led to Rimin Gado being taken into custody and transported to the Kano police headquarters.

The incident reportedly included a demand to see the arrest warrant and reasons for the arrest, which were not provided. The arrest was linked to properties allegedly connected to a senior APC member.

Efforts to reach the Kano police spokesperson for comments were unsuccessful.
