Governor Abba Yusuf of Kano State has ordered all political appointees in his government to declare their assets.
This directive was given during an Iftar gathering held at the Government House in Kano on Thursday, where the governor met with Heads of Government Agencies and Special Advisers.
He raised concerns that most of the appointees, around 60 to 70 percent, had not yet declared their assets, as required by the Code of Conduct rules.
He called on them to obtain the necessary forms, fill them out, and submit them promptly to comply with the law.
The governor reminded the advisers of their role in guiding the government with sound advice and submitting regular reports on governance matters.
He encouraged them to pay close attention to government activities and offer honest feedback, whether positive or critical, to improve governance.
During the event, Yusuf also announced that 13 Hajj seats had been allocated to Heads of Government Agencies as part of the government’s support.
Dr. Rahila Mukhtar, the Executive Secretary of the Kano State Contributory Health Care Management Agency (KCHIMA), thanked the governor on behalf of the appointees for his continuous encouragement.
The Secretary to the State Government, Malam Umar Ibrahim, also spoke at the gathering, reminding the appointees of their oath to uphold fairness and work toward improving the lives of Kano residents.
He urged them to stay dedicated to the administration’s goals of transformation and development.
