The Kano State government has warned all public officials against involving themselves in any matter related to public interest without securing prior approval from the government.
Spokesperson for the governor, Sanusi Bature, gave the warning during a press briefing following the resignation of the state commissioner for transportation, who was involved in the bail of a drug baron in the state.
He reiterated the commitment of the state government under Governor Abba Yusuf in fighting drug abuse and other social vices, including phone snatching and political thuggery
“The state is committing a lot of resources to this issue to ensure the safety and security of the state, particularly the metropolis, where a lot of crime is being orchestrated by unpatriotic youths,” he said.
