The Kano State Governor, Abba Yusuf, has accepted the resignation of his Commissioner for the newly created Ministry of Internal Security and Special Services, Major General Muhammad Idris (retd.).
In a statement issued by the governor’s spokesperson, Sunusi Tofa, on Tuesday, the governor expressed his deep gratitude to the retired general for his service to the state within his short tenure, acknowledging his contributions to the initial take-off of the ministry.
Even though no reason was given for the resignation, the governor also extended his best wishes to the former commissioner, describing him as a dedicated public servant and a patriotic Nigerian.
“We thank Major General Muhammad Inuwa Idris (Rtd) for his unwavering commitment and contributions to the development of Kano State right from his days in the military career, we wish him a peaceful and fulfilling retirement as he transitions into a well-deserved rest from public service,” Yusuf was quoted as saying.
“His tenure, though brief, has been credited with laying a solid foundation for the ministry’s take-off, which the governor believes that his successor can build on to set a pace for operations of the new Ministry,” the statement said.
