“In Kano we have the strongest anti corruption institution. As a result of the work of our Anti-Corruption agency, some Commissioners lost their job. So also some Permanent Secretaries and Director with the state civil service lost their jobs.
“Our anti corruption staff are being trained by the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) and other Anti-Corruption agencies at the federal level. So that they can be acquainted with modern practice in the fight against corruption,” he said.
The governor commended the association of the Accountants, saying their profession is a living profession and urged them to remain united and strong.
