The Kebbi State Government has removed Sa'adu Haruna Sauwa as the District Head of Kaura Sani in Argungu Local Government Area and appointed Usman Hakimi Kaura Sani as his replacement.
This was disclosed in a statement signed by the Commissioner for Local Government and Chieftaincy Affairs, Hon. Garba Umar Dutsinmari, and made available to newsmen in Birnin Kebbi on Wednesday.
According to Dutsinmari, the removal of Sa'adu Haruna Sauwa followed the findings of a committee set up by the state government to investigate the crisis at the Kebbi State College of Health Technology, Jega.
He explained that the crisis occurred while Sauwa was serving as Provost of the college, prompting the government to constitute a committee for a thorough investigation.
“The report of the committee indicted Sa'adu Haruna Sauwa. In line with extant laws governing the appointment, turbaning, and deposition of district heads and traditional chiefs, he can no longer continue as District Head of Kaura Sani,” Dutsinmari stated.
He added that, consequently, the Kebbi State Government has approved the removal of Sauwa and appointed Usman Hakimi Kaura Sani as the new District Head of Kaura Sani in Argungu Local Government Area.
