Kano zoo speaks on ‘Gorilla swallowing’ N7m
The Kano State
Zoological garden has reacted to report that a huge Gorilla swallowed the sum
of seven millions raised during the last Sallah celebrations in the state.
BBC Pidgin had last
week reported that a finance officer claimed that “a
huge Gorilla” sneaked into their office to “swallow” the money.
However, the
Managing Director of the zoo, Mallam Umar Yusif Umar dismissed the report,
stressing that the money was stolen by burglars and not Gorilla.
Speaking with
Guardian, Umar said: “I was called midnight on Sunday 9th, June, by the head of
security that armed robbers burgled our office, including the revenue office.
“About 6.30am, I
left my home for the office and immediately I arrived I met my office and that
of all the directors opened.
“Instantly I called
the DPO, Sharada police station and reported the case to him. As far as I’m
concerned, I suspect theft and nothing close to Gorilla.”
