Kano State Governor Abba Kabir Yusuf has said a decision to replace under-performing cabinet members is underway.

Yusuf, who confirmed the receipt of a report on the performance of cabinet members, said the government’s next line of action would soon be made public.

The Governor disclosed this during a live radio interview with selected media outfits held at the Government House on Wednesday.

He revealed that none of the present commissioners lobbied for the position, stressing that before their appointment, he considered experience, credibility, and advice consultation.

He said, “What I expected from the commissioners is obedience to my humble self, to the NNPP and to the Kwankeasiyya Movement, in addition to dedication to duty and to come up with good initiatives for the development of the state.”

On poverty alleviation, the governor said that people benefited from free foodstuffs distribution in the urban and rural areas to cushion the hardship being experienced as a result of the removal of petroleum subsidy.

He assured that the gesture would be sustained to enable thousands of less privileged citizens to meet their daily bread.

The governor further said that KASCO company which provides fertiliser for farmers is working to provide enough commodities for farmers to boost food production.

The governor revealed that the present administration prioritises women and youth empowerment since its assumed office.
