The Deputy Governor of Kano State, Aminu Abdussalam Gwarzo, has resigned from office, stating that the decision was taken in the interest of the state and not an admission of wrongdoing.
Gwarzo disclosed this in a resignation letter addressed to the Kano State Governor, Abba Kabir Yusuf, which was made available to journalists.
In the letter, the former deputy governor said he stepped down after consultations and reflection on the prevailing circumstances in the state.
He wrote, “I, Aminu Abdussalam Gwarzo, the Deputy Governor of Kano State, hereby tender my voluntary resignation from office, with effect from 27th March 2026, pursuant to Section 306 (2) of the Constitution of the Federal Republic of Nigeria, 1999 (as amended).
“This decision has been reached after careful consultations and deep reflection, guided by my current experience, commitment to the peace, stability, and overall interest of the good people of Kano State.”
Gwarzo said the resignation was aimed at enabling the government to function without distractions.
He further stated, “In view of the prevailing circumstances, I have taken this step in the spirit of responsibility and statesmanship, to allow the government and the State to move forward without undue distractions.
“This resignation is made voluntarily and in good faith. It should not be construed as an admission of any wrongdoing, but rather as a conscious decision in the interest of institutional integrity, democratic values, and public service.”
