The Governor of Kano State, Abba Yusuf, has taken a decisive step by dissolving the caretaker chairmen of all 44 local government areas in the state. This move, announced through a statement by the Governor’s spokesperson, Sanusi Bature, comes just a week after the state House of Assembly extended their tenure for two months. The extension aimed at ensuring continuity in local governance until the upcoming local government elections on 26 October.
Yusuf has instructed the caretaker chairmen to transfer leadership to their Directors of Personnel Management. He expressed gratitude for their service and hinted at potential future collaboration. This dissolution affects all chairmen, vice chairmen, secretaries, and councillors in the local government areas.
As the state prepares for the elections, this bold move signals the Governor’s commitment to effective governance and leadership in Kano State.
