Governor Abdullahi Ganduje of Kano State has forwarded a list of eight nominees for the positions of commissioners to the state House of Assembly for confirmation.

The Speaker of the House, Hamisu Chidari, at plenary read the names in a governor’s letter listed as Ibrahim Dan’azumi Gwarzo, Abdulhalim Liman Dan Maliki, Lamin Sani Zawiyya, Ya’u Abdullahi Yanshana, Garba Yusif Abubakar, Yusif Jibril Rurum, Adamu Abdu Panda and Saleh Kausani.

However, eight commissioners who were interested in contesting elective positions resigned their appointment before the primaries of political parties.

Their resignation was in line with the Electoral Act, 2022 as amended.

Chidari said the commissioner nominees would be screened on Monday next week.
