Africa-Press – Nigeria. <\/strong><\/span>Governor Abdullahi Umar Ganduje of Kano State has, after the massive resignations of his Commissioners prior to party primaries for political offices, appointed new commissioners to replace those that left.<\/p>\n

Among those appointed as new commissioners include a strong ally of former Governor of Kano State, Senator Ibrahim Shekarau; and Malam Garba Yusuf Abubakar whose names were sent to the state House of Assembly for confirmation.<\/p>\n

Prior to the conduct of the primary election by Nigerian political parties, a number of commissioners resigned from Governor Abdullahi Umar Ganduje\u2019s cabinet.<\/p>\n

Those whose names appeared for confirmation as new Commissioners include, Ibrahim Dan\u2019azumi Gwarzo, Abdulhalim Liman Dan Maliki, Lamin Sani Zawiyya, a Former State House of Assembly Speaker,Ya\u2019u Abdullahi Yanshana, a Shekarau loyalist Garba Yusif Abubakar.<\/p>\n

Others that made the lists of the new Commissioners are, Yusif Jibril Rurum, a Veteran Journalist and a former National Assembly member, Adamu Abdu Panda, and Saleh Kausani.<\/p>\n

It was on record that Garba Yusuf Abubakar, was among the cabals that run the affairs of Governor Malam Ibrahim Shekarau\u2019s government for 8 years from 2003 to 2015 and has held portfolios of Information, land and physical planning, and state\u2019s ministry of finance throughout the 8-year tenure of Malam Ibrahim Shekarau.<\/p>\n

People never thought Garba Yusuf Abubakar will fell out with his close friend and ally for many decades.<\/p>\n

Garba Yusuf Abubakar is popularly known in Kano as Garba Izala due to his affinity with Jamaatu Izalatul Bidia Wa ikamatussunnah.<\/p>\n

Due to an internal party crisis Malam Ibrahim Shekarau now a senator representing Kano central has joined the Rabiu Musa Kwankwaso\u2019s New Nigeria People\u2019s Party and has since clinched the senatorial ticket of the party for the 2023 general elections.<\/p>\n
