Governor Abba Kabir Yusuf of Kano has sworn in Major-General, Muhammad Inuwa Idris (rtd) as the commissioner for the newly created Ministry of Home Affairs and Internal Security in the state.
The Governor announced the portfolio shortly after inaugurating the new boards of Aliko Dangote University of Science and Technology, Wudil, Yusuf Maitama Sule University, and Kano State Polytechnic.
Daily Trust reports that the ministry was created about five months ago but no commissioner was assigned until now.
The governor charged the newly appointees to be skillful and efficient while taking bold steps in providing governance and leadership that will stimulate rapid growth.
The new ministry is expected to address the internal security challenges Kano faces and also ensure the local governments align with the Yusuf-led government in creating an atmosphere of peace and prosperity.
