Barely 24 hours after defecting to the All Progressives Congress (APC) and publicly declaring support for Governor Nasir Idris’ second-term bid, Almustapha Malami, has been appointed as the General Manager of the Kebbi State Geographic Information System (KEBGIS).
Almustapha is the younger brother of the embattled former Attorney-General of the Federation and Minister of Justice, Abubakar Malami (SAN).
The appointment was conveyed in an official letter signed by the Kebbi State Head of Service, Malami Shekare, and made available on Tuesday.
In the letter, the Head of Service congratulated the appointee on his new role and urged him to demonstrate total commitment, diligence, and dedication in the discharge of his duties, in line with the policies and objectives of the Kebbi State Government.
“The government expects you to bring your wealth of experience to bear in ensuring effective management of the state’s geographic information system for improved land administration and service delivery,” the letter stated.
According to the letter, the appointment takes immediate effect.
