Kano elders under the auspice of Kano Unity Forum (KUF) have written a petition against Governor Abdullahi Umar Ganduje over his insistence to take about N300 billion for a light-rail project. In a petition signed by former presidential aspirant and chieftain of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Bashir Tofa, which was directed to President Muhammadu Buhari, the Kano elders raised an alarm that Ganduje is taking to a path that may plunge Kano into internal debts. Legit.ng gathers that the petition was also addressed to the National Assembly, the office of debt management, and Federal Ministry of Finance. The elders argued that the loan is unnecessary and Ganduje’s light rail project is rather shrouded secrecy. Kano elders have raised an alarm over state government's insistence to collect Chinese loan. They warned that generations coming may find it difficult to bear the brunt of Ganduje's missteps, adding that at the time Nigeria is faced with financial difficulties, more social projects should be the priority of the government. The elders want President Buhari and concerned stakeholders in the Nigerian government to stop the current Kano government from plugging the state into multiple indebtedness.
