Solacebase recalled that the late appointment of commissioners in the cabinet after five months after the governor’s inauguration is raising a lot of dust in the state political arena.

At the plenary of the house on Monday, the Speaker, Kano State House of Assembly, Alhaji Garba Gafasa urged the Commissioner Nominees to appear before the assembly tomorrow, Tuesday for screening.

Meanwhile, the Kano state governor, Abdullahi Umar Ganduje, on Monday, also launched the state government free feeding programme, covering about 6,800 public primary schools across the state.

Speaking during the ceremony held at Kawaji Jigirya Primary School in Nasarawa local government, Gov. Ganduje explained that the school feeding programme was “aimed at enhancing school enrolment, minimizing absenteeism and generally improving the well being of the pupils”.

A statement issued by Director-General, Media and Public Relations, to Kano State Governor, Ameen K. Yassar forwarded to Solacebase on Monday said the programme is a critical component of the administration’s free and compulsory education policy which targets inclusiveness for vulnerable children, girl child education and integration of Qur’anic education schools into mainstream formal education.
