Kano State Government has debunked accusations of Governor Abba Kabir Yusuf led administration, engaging in political vendetta saying he is rather focused on the developmental progress of the state.
Governor Yusuf made this known in a speech he delivered while receiving the Emir of Gaya, Alhaji Aliyu Ibrahim Abdulkadir, who paid him a Sallah homage.
The Governor challenged critics to keep records of his work and judge him at the end of his tenure.
Engr. Yusuf statement has been perceived as a likely response to the outcry that followed his administration’s policy reversals, mass suspension of salaries of civil servants employed by his predecessor and the demolition of structures erected on public owned lands within the first 30 days in office.
In a statement signed by his spokesperson, Hisham Habib,
which was made available to newsmen in Kano recently, Governor Yusuf lamented how individuals in power turn public owned property into personal use against the general interest of the people.
According to the statement, Gov. Yusuf also affirmed his administration’s commitment to effectively implement the free maternity policy.
He reiterated his governments commitment to refuse evacuation and management and expressed concern over sanitation in the state.
On his part, the Emir of Gaya, Alhaji Aliyu Ibrahim Abdulkadir, informed the governor that the emirate had established a
strong vigilante committee to enhance security in the region.
