Kano Government Retrieve Vehicles From Ex-Commissioners

The Kano State Public Complaints and Anti-Corruption Commission has recovered official vehicles from commissioners who voluntarily resigned from the state executive council.

The recovery exercise, carried out by operatives of the commission, followed the alleged continued refusal of the affected commissioners to return the government property.

The Chairman of the Commission, Sa’idu Yahaya, who led the operation, said the action became necessary after the former commissioners failed to comply with repeated official requests to return government property.

Yahaya disclosed that the operation was prompted by formal complaints and notification from the Office of the Secretary to the Kano State Government regarding alleged abuse of office and the urgent need for the former officials to return all government property in their possession upon resignation.

The chairman further alleged that some of the commissioners sold the official vehicles shortly after leaving office.
