Ganduje refutes claims on PG foreign scholarships, says govt. spends over N20bn on scheme

Former commissioner for Information and Internal Affairs in the administration, Malam Muhammad Garba stated this in a statement against the background of a false claim by the New Nigeria People’s Party (NNPP) that Ganduje had not pay foreign scholarship in his eight year two term administration in the state.

Malam Garba said available records indicate that in addition to the above, the former administration also sponsored 50 lecturers from its two universities and other tertiary institutions for their doctorate degrees in French prestigious universities under a programme jointly carried out between the French and Kano state government.
