Abba Gida-Gida issued 72 hours ultimatum to stop demolition in Kano, details emerge
Legit.ng reported earlier that Kano state governor, Abba Yusuf, has been issued a 72 hours ultimatum to stop the ongoing demolition exercise in the state and bring affected persons to the table for an amicable resolution.
This ultimatum was issued by a pro-democracy coalition under the aegis of the Good Governance and Change Initiative (GGCI).
The coalition threatened to drag Governor Yusuf to court if he failed to heed the terms of the ultimatum.
Role Kwankwaso would occupy in President Bola Tinubu’s cabinet
In another report, Rabiu Musa Kwankwaso, the presidential candidate of the New Nigeria Peoples Party (NNPP) in the 2023 election, would possibly be named one of Nigeria's new ministers.
On Monday, June 19, Kwakwanso may likely be made defence minister.
A source hinted that although some persons want President Bola Tinubu to name the immediate past governor of Kano state, Abdullahi Umaru Ganduje, in his cabinet, the Nigerian leader has "aligned with" Kwankwaso.
