The Kano house of assembly has asked the state government to formally respond to the allegations made by the United States concerning Rabiu Musa Kwankwaso, the former governor.
The motion, presented by Usman Tasiu, was discussed during plenary on Tuesday.
Tasiu described Kwankwaso as a dedicated public servant whose administration had made significant contributions to the welfare of Kano residents.
He noted Kwankwaso’s role in promoting peace, supporting education, and driving infrastructural development for both Muslims and Christians.
Tasiu also noted the former governor’s “consistent efforts as a unifying figure”, mediating conflicts between Nigeria’s northern and southern regions while “maintaining a firm stance against terrorism throughout his tenure”.
After deliberations, the assembly unanimously adopted the motion, urging the Kano government to take the necessary actions in response to the allegations from the US.
In addition, the assembly had approved several motions calling on the state government to construct roads in various LGAs, including Tarauni, Madobi, Garun Malam, and Madobi.
The house adjourned its sitting until Monday, March 2, 2026, following a motion moved by Lawan Hussaini.
