A public affairs analyst, Jabir Madaki, has cautioned Kano State Governor, Abba Kabir Yusuf, against making what he described as a wrong choice in appointing a substantive deputy governor.
Madaki gave the warning in a report titled “Government Integrity and Public Interest” released on Wednesday, describing the decision as a defining moment for the administration.
“Your deputy appointment will either define this administration with honour or lead to consequences that may be difficult to reverse,” he stated.
The analyst also expressed concern over reports that a candidate with pending legal issues may be under consideration, warning that such a move could erode public trust.
“Appointing a candidate facing unresolved corruption allegations would contradict the administration’s commitment to transparency and accountability,” he added.
Madaki urged the governor to appoint a seasoned professional with proven competence and integrity, stressing that the decision should be guided by public interest.
He noted that a credible appointment would strengthen governance and sustain public confidence in the administration.
