revealed that Acting President Yemi Osinbajo, Ibrahim Babangida, former
military president Abdulsalami Abubakar, former head of state; Sa’ad
Abubakar, sultan of Sokoto, Aliko Dangote, billionaire businessman
pleaded on Sanusi’s behalf.
Rurum also told the House on Monday, that Kano State Governor,

He said Ganduje pleaded with the lawmakers to suspend the investigation.
The Kano State House of Assembly eventually approved the governor’s plea unanimously.
