Kano Governor Yusuf urges cabinet members to improve or resign.

Kano State Governor Abba Kabir Yusuf has cautioned commissioners and special advisers in his administration to either improve their performance or be prepared to leave office.

The warning was delivered during the Hawan Nasarawa Sallah homage in Kano, as stated by the governor’s spokesperson, Sunusi Bature Dawakin Tofa.

Yusuf emphasized that political appointees must earn the trust placed in them by delivering results and remaining committed to good governance. He highlighted accountability and measurable achievements as key priorities of his administration.

He urged members of the State Executive Council and other aides to renew their dedication to serving the people and helping the government achieve its development goals.

“Any appointee who fails to perform up to expectations should either improve or be ready to vacate office,” the governor said.

He added that his administration would not tolerate negligence, poor performance, lack of commitment, or disloyalty from any political appointee.

Despite the general admonition, the governor praised Commissioner for Environment Dahir Hashim, calling him hard‑working and innovative, noting that he is the youngest member of the State Executive Council.

Yusuf said the commissioner has shown strong commitment, creativity, and performance in promoting government programmes and improving communication between the administration and the public.

He reaffirmed his commitment to recognising and rewarding outstanding performance in public service.
