The Kano State Governor, Dr. Abdullahi Umar Ganduje has relieved the appointment of the Commissioner of Works and Infrastructure, Engr. Mu’azu Magaji with immediate effect.
According to a statement signed by the Commissioner for Information, Malam Muhammad Garba, the commissioner was removed following his unguarded utterances against the person of the late Chief of Staff to the President, Malam Abba Kyari.
He said as a public servant, the commissioner ought to have respect for the office by refraining from any act capable of rendering it to disrepute.
“The action of a public servant, personal or otherwise reflects back on the government and therefore, the Ganduje administration would not tolerate people in official capacities engaging in a personal vendetta or otherwise,” the statement read.
The commissioner had earlier celebrated Abba Kyari’s death on his Facebook page written.
‘According to the post,’Win win… Nigeria is free and Abba kyari ya mutu a cikin annoba… Mutuwar shahada in Har da Imani mutum ya cika.”
The commissioner writes on his page, “I am not a hypocrite and I won’t pretend! (sic). While at a personal level I pray Allah to grant Abba Kyari Jannah…I sincerely believe Nigeria needed a better CoS period!”
Meanwhile, the state government eulogized Kyari, stressing that he led a life worthy of emulation by serving his country to the best of his ability.
