This was when the going was good between the governor and the journalist as he was hosted at the Kano state government house.
Two videos released – captured show governor Ganduje, receiving part of $5m bribe from a contractor and stuffing them in his pockets.
The first video was released to the public on Sunday while the second, on Monday.
The money was part of tranches received amounting to about $5million from contractors in the state.
