Speaking by H.E Rt Hon Aminu Bello Masari disclosed that, it is not an intention of Katsina State Government to investigate the previous administration but its necessary to set up this Judicial Commission of Inquiry in regards to people of Katsina State, to investigate and recovered the missing funds.
He also added that his administration is not investigating the Past Government base on the contracts awarded but base on the funds that were taken illegally from the State Treasury. if it's said, the contract of 10m was awarded as 100m instead of 10m, so this government is not investigating that. It is investigating the funds that were withdrawn from Government's coppers with out any prove evidences.

Lastly, H.E Rt Hon Aminu Bello Masari, prayed for them Allah's guidance and protection through out the period of this great task that was assigned on them.
