Hours after Bashir Sa’idu, a former Commissioner during the erstwhile Nasiru El-Rufai administration was remanded in a Correctional Facility in the state based on alleged corruption and money laundering while in office, former Governor of the state, Mallam Nasiru Ahmed El-Rufa’i has visited the Correctional Facility where he reportedly sought audience with the embattled former Commissioner.
El-Rufa’i who was accompanied by some key figures of his administration, also went to the court where Bashir was arranged, but could not meet the judge.
According to a BBC Hausa report monitored on Thursday evening, El-Rufa’i also went to the office of Operation Fushin Kada, but couldn’t meet the security operatives.
The outcome of his discussions at the Police Command was not made public as the former governor did not speak to journalists.
Mohammed Bashir Sa’idu, a former Kaduna State Commissioner of Finance and Local Government, was arrested over allegations of money laundering, criminal breach of trust, and misappropriation of public funds.
The Nigeria Police Force has confirmed the arrest and ongoing investigation of the former state government official, who was also a Chief of Staff to El-Rufa’i.
