Kano State Governor, Abba Yusuf, has requested members of the state house of Assembly to move to a convenient site for legislative functions to allow for demolition of the assembly complex and the building of a new assembly complex.
The governor in a letter addressed to the Speaker of the Assembly, Ismail Falgore, appreciated the cordial relationship between the executive arm under his leadership and the legislative arm under the leadership of the speaker and further announced his intention to demolish the building.
Reading the letter on the floor of the House during plenary, the speaker announced the intention of the state government to construct a new and befitting chamber that would stand the test of time.

The governor therefore admonished them to move to a convenient site where they could continue to carry out their legislative functions effectively before the completion of the new chamber.
In his response to the letter, the Majority Leader of the House, Lawan Husseini, urged the governor to ensure that transparency and due process is followed in awarding the contract for the new assembly complex.
He advised that the contract should be awarded to a competent contractor who will deliver a standard job and the completion of the project at the appropriate time.
