The Kaduna State House of Assembly has established a committee tasked with examining financial transactions, loans, grants, and project execution in former Governor Nasir el-Rufa’i’s administration.
El-Rufa’i, a former Federal Capital Territory (FCT) Minister, governed Kaduna State between the years 2015 and 2023.
The Assembly set up the fact-finding committee yesterday at the plenary, held at the Lord Lugard Legislative Complex in Kaduna.
The legislative panel would also investigate el-Rufa’i’s top associates and senior counselor on investment Jimi Lawal. Others include former Speakers of the 8th and 9th Assembly, Commissioners of Finance, former Managing Directors of Kaduna markets, and Commissioners of Budget and Planning, among others.
The panel set up by the Assembly is expected to probe financial dealings, loans and grants and other project implementation from 2015-2023.
