Kano State Governor, North West Nigeria, Abdullahi Umar Ganduje has directed the Head of Civil Service, Usman Bala Muhammad to oversee the Office of the Chief of Staff to the Governor with immediate effect.

Gatekeepers News reports that this was disclosed in a statement by the Commissioner for Information, Malam Muhammad Garba.

He noted that the supervision would be pending the appointment of a substantive Chief of Staff.

The statement added that Ganduje expressed the hope for effective supervision and coordination by the Head of Service, having served in the office before.
