Following the resignation, Governor Uba Sani swiftly appointed Alhaji Ahmed Maiyaki as the new Commissioner for Information.
A statement issued on Tuesday by the Chief Press Secretary to the Governor, Malam Ibraheem Musa, confirmed Maiyaki’s appointment. Until his elevation, he was the Managing Director of the Kaduna State Media Corporation (KSMC).
Maiyaki’s appointment is seen as a strategic move to strengthen the administration’s communication efforts.
