Governor Abdullahi Ganduje of Kano State has said that preliminary report by the State’s anti graft agency indicated that the alleged swallowing of N6.8 million by a Gorilla at the Kano zoo, was a clear case of armed robbery.

He said: “You know I already directed the anti-corruption agency in Kano to wade into the issue and they are still investigating”.

“But all I can say now is that preliminary reports indicate that there was armed robbery at the zoo, and not the issue of Gorilla”.

“The issue of Gorilla is junk Journalism. This is because there is even no Gorilla in that zoo. We are told that there was an armed robbery incidence in which the entire safe at the zoo was carted away”.

“Well the outcome of the investigation will let us know what actually happened, but I am sure that there is something wrong anyway”.(NAN)
