He explained that his initial decision to stand as surety for the defendant was made voluntarily and within the bounds of the law, driven by longstanding family ties and humanitarian concerns. However, he emphasized that this action should not be interpreted as a show of support for drug-related activities or an endorsement of the alleged offence.

Alhaji Namadi reaffirmed his unwavering loyalty to the Governor of Kano State, Alhaji Abba Kabir Yusuf, the State Executive Council, and the people of Kano. He pledged continued support for government-led efforts to combat drug abuse and promote safer, healthier communities.

He concluded by expressing his willingness to offer further clarification if needed, while maintaining his commitment to upholding the values of public service and accountability.
