#EndSARS: Ganduje suspends Special Adviser, Salihu Tanko Yakasai @Dawisu for criticising Buhari
Kano state Governor, Abdullahi Umar Ganduje has suspended his Special Adviser on Media, Salihu Tanko Yakasai for calling General Buhari insensitive.
A statement signed by the state commissioner for Information Muhammad Garba, who conveyed the governor’s directive said the suspension is with immediate effect.
The commissioner said that though the media aide has owned up to the snide comment as his personal opinion, but that as a public figure, it will be difficult to differentiate between personal opinion and official stand on matters of public concern.
The governor, therefore, warned political appointees and public servants to guard against making statements capable of drawing unnecessary controversy and heating up the polity.
The statement reaffirmed the commitment of Governor Ganduje to the policies and programmes of President Buhari’s administration.
