The chairman, House of Representatives Committee on Petroleum (Upstream), Hon. Alhassan Ado Doguwa (APC, Kano), has said that he was not standing trial before any court of law in Nigeria, for alleged murder, culpable homicide or any politically instigated violence being speculated by his detractors and political enemies.

The former Leader of the House said this while responding to a statement credited to the member of the House representing Kiru/Bebeji Federal Constituency of Kano State, Hon. Abdulmumin Jibrin (NNPP, Kano) that Doguwa has never won a free and fair election, but rather emerged victorious by rigging and electoral violence, “leaving behind sorrow, tears and blood in his constituency.”

Doguwa, who’s the chairman, Northern Regional Caucus of the 10th House of Representatives, in a statement on Thursday, admitted that there was a crisis instigated by perpetual political losers in his constituency during the 2023 general election but he was not behind such crisis, instead he was only made a victim.

He said; “the Police investigators arrested some of the hoodlums who have made personal confessions – they were mostly NNPP members. Some of them were even hired from Kano city to go to Tudun Wada to stop the unstoppable election of my humble self to the House of Representatives for the 7th time.
These indicted NNPP criminals were prosecuted by appropriate courts of law in Kano and were served different sentences.

“Federal High Court in Abuja delivered the recent and most exemplary judgement on enforcing my fundamental human rights as a free Nigerian citizen. It may interest Jibrin and his cohorts to know that that judgement even ordered the Kano State government and the Governor to pay me a cost of N25m as damages for unnecessarily harassing me and defaming my innocent character.

“I went through virtually all criminal investigations and judicial considerations at various levels and came out clean and victoriously innocent. Copies of such rigorous police investigations conducted by the highest police investigations authority in the land ( the Force Criminal Investigation Department – FCID, Abuja) that cleared me are available for public scrutiny.

“For the information of Jibrin and his partners in crime, it was based on the police clearance that the Attorney General and Commissioner of Justice in Kano State acted and issued unmistakable and unambiguous legal advice that exonerated me from the alleged criminal charges.

“I therefore, wish to state on my honour and on Islamic moral conviction that the so-called crisis in my constituency was merely cooked and fabricated to throw a spanner in the works of what was perceived to be my life ambition in politics (to be the Speaker of the House of Representatives).”

The former Chief Whip of the House said
he was awaiting the so-called bombshell Jibrin threatened to drop against him which would lead to his expulsion from the All Progressives Congress (APC).

Doguwa said his colleague Jibrin only derailed into “hallucinations, concoctions and black lies.”

Tracing the origin of their faceoff, Doguwa said: “As we all know, the genesis of these verbal altercations started when Jibrin, a political parasite and an electoral terrorist, warned me against responding to his “fictitious godfather”, Senator Rabiu Musa Kwankwaso, who disparaged the leadership of the APC and called us “Banzaye”, a Hausa word for stupid people, in a widely circulated video clip.”
