“Alhamdulillah, I am once again honoured to be back in HE AU Ganduje’s administration to serve as Chairman of the NNPC – AKK Pipeline Project Delivery & Kano State Industrialisation Committee.
“These Projects both from NNPC and in Kano State will potentially set the foundation for a new industrial and commercial centers in Kano under HE leadership,” the sacked commissioner said.
