Kano Assembly to screen Ganduje’s additional commissioner-nominee
On Tuesday, the Kano House of Assembly received a request for the screening of an additional commissioner-nominee, Ali Burum-Burum, from Governor Abdullahi Ganduje.
This is contained in a statement by the chief press secretary to the assembly, Uba Abdullahi, in Kano.
Mr Ganduje had, on August 15, submitted a list of eight nominees to the parliament for screening and confirmation to fill the vacuum created by the resignation of some members of the state executive council to contest the 2023 general elections.
According to the statement, the name of the additional nominee was sent in a letter signed by Mr Ganduje, addressed to the speaker of the house, Hamisu Ibrahim-Chidari.
“The letter was officially received by the house and is currently undergoing legislative process. Dr Burum-Burum, along with the other eight commissioner nominees, would be screened on August 22,” the statement said.
