Every public official must be vigilant and responsible in their dealings. You are not only representing your office but the integrity of the entire administration,\u201d the Governor stated.<\/p>\n<p>He further emphasized that Namadi\u2019s resignation should serve as a serious reminder to others in government positions.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIf anyone among you feels he can no longer uphold the trust bestowed upon him, it is better to voluntarily resign rather than engage in misconduct that could tarnish the image of this administration,\u201d he declared.<\/p>\n<p>Governor Yusuf also reiterated that the campaign against drugs and harmful behaviour remains a major priority for his government. He assured that anyone found supporting or involved in such acts\u2014whether directly or indirectly\u2014will face legal consequences.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe came into office with a clear mandate to restore sanity, integrity, and progress in Kano. That mission will not be compromised. I urge all appointees to conduct themselves in a manner that reflects the values of this administration,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n<p>He affirmed his government\u2019s firm stance on justice, accountability, and dedicated service to the people of Kano.<\/p>\n<p><strong>For More News And Analysis About <span style=\"color: #ff6600\">Nigeria<\/span> Follow <span style=\"color: #ff6600\">Africa-Press<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Africa-Press &#8211; Nigeria.
