ZAMFARA: Gov Dauda Lawal swears in new commissioner, reshuffles cabinet

Governor Lawal chaired the Zamfara State Executive Council on Monday during which the new commissioner was sworn in.

A statement by the governor’s spokesperson Sulaiman Idris revealed that the governor made a minor cabinet reshuffle in the portfolios of commissioners.

Idris added that Kaura’s appointment follows Mannir Haidara’s resignation as commissioner and his subsequent election as Chairman of Kaura Namoda Local Government Area.

During the swearing-in, Governor Lawal stressed that Kaura’s selection to represent Kaura Namoda Local Government Area in the cabinet was informed by his competent service to his community and the state in general.

“His appointment is an affirmation of this Administration’s resolve to continue tapping from the pool of available capacity and the fountain of knowledge and experiences of our committed citizens to fast-track the delivery of democratic dividends and deliver on our rescue agenda to the good people of Zamfara State,” the governor said.

“I urge the new Commissioner to rededicate himself to serving the people. As a central member of the rescue mission, I do not doubt that he will give his best for the benefit of all.

“Honorable Commissioner, I congratulate you on this call to duty and opportunity to serve. I pray for Allah’s guidance and protection upon you and us all. I urge you to work closely with your colleagues in the council and the Ministry on your assignment to realize the good of all.”
