A Nigerian Journalist currently on exile in the united kingdom Jaafar Jaafar said the fine slam on Governor Ganduje which was paid to him will be used for charity.
The Daily Nigerian publisher was paid 800 thousand Naira by Governor Ganduje for wasting his time during a suit filed by the governor before Kano high court in 2018 alleging defamation of character by Governor Ganduje.
But in an interview with a Kano based radio station Freedom Radio Jaafar Jaafar said he is going to handover the 800 thousand Naira to Inda Ranka programme as a charity to the less previlege who always go to the station seeking for medical assistance through the popular Inda Ranka program.

In October 2018 the Daily Nigerian published a video showing Governor Ganduje stuffing his pockets with American dollars alleged to be kickback from contractors.
As a result governor Ganduje took Jaafar Jaafar to a Kano high court accusing Jaafar Jaafar and his company penlight publishers of Daily Nigeria for defamation of character.
When Governor Ganduje decided to discontinue the case against Jaafar Jaafar the Kano High court ordered the Governor to pay Jaafar Jaafar 800 thousand Naira for waste of time and defamation of character.
Jaafar Jaafar said he is also going to add 200 thousand Naira to make it one million.
