Muhuyi Magaji has been suspended by the Code of Conduct Tribunal from his position as Chairman of the Kano State Public Complaints and Anti-Corruption Commission.
Magaji was arraigned on Thursday for suspected violations of the public officials’ code of conduct, including conflict of interest, misuse of office, false asset declaration, bribery, and taking gifts, among other things.
The Tribunal granted the complainant’s application directing the defendant to step aside as the Chairman of the Public Complaint and Anti-Corruption Commission of Kano state over the allegations that centred on contravention of the provisions of the Code of Conduct Bureau and Tribunal Act CAP C15 LFN 2004, pending the hearing and determination of the case
The tribunal therefore issued an order directing the Executive Governor of Kano State and the Secretary to the Government of Kano State to take all necessary steps to appoint the most appropriate officer to take over as Acting Chairman of the Public Complaint and Anti-Corruption Commission pending the hearing and determination of the case against the defendant or respondent.
