The New Nigerian People Party (NNPP)’s government of Kano State has alleged that the immediate past All Progressives Congress (APC) government of Abdullahi Umar Ganduje left the state with a debt burden of over N500 billion.
Deputy Governor Aminu Abdussalam Gwarzo stated this in Kaduna while chairing the North-West Zonal Meeting of NNPP.
He said the debt owed by the past government may be in excess of N500 billion at the end of the ongoing verification process.
The deputy governor said the huge debt impeded the smooth take-off of the NNPP government in Kano.
While pointing out the remarkable achievements accomplished by the government within the short period of assumption of governance, Abdussalam, assured party chieftains and members at the meeting that, NNPP led government would not disappoint the people of Kano.
He said, “We came into office inheriting a government that left us with nothing but debt. Initially, it was N300 billion, but now it is approaching N500 billion, and we are still counting. Once we complete the assessment, we will inform Nigerians, especially our fellow Kano residents, about the total debt left behind.”
