Abdullahi Ganduje, governor of Kano state, has facilitated the release of 300 inmates across the state.

Ganduje said the state government paid the N12 million to settle the fines to secure the release of the inmates who were on lesser charges.

The federal government had earlier directed the decongestion of prison nationwide to prevent the spread of coronavirus.
