Kano State Governor Abba Yusuf
Kano State Governor Abba Yusuf has dissolved the caretaker chairmen of all 44 Local Government Areas of the state with immediate effect.
The governor’s spokesperson, Sanusi Bature, made this known in a statement on Thursday, September 19, 2024.
The dissolution is coming a week after the Kano State House of Assembly approved a two-month extension to their tenure, which was initially set to expire on September 8.
The extension, the lawmakers said, is aimed at ensuring continuity in local governance.

He expressed gratitude to the caretaker chairmen for their contribution to the development of their areas and hinted at potential future collaboration.
