Kano, Nigeria: Kano State Governor, Abba Kabir Yusuf, has issued a clarion call to political appointees, urging them to uphold the highest standards of integrity and accountability in public service.
The governor also stressed that these values were crucial for building a better future for the state.
Yusuf made the call during a three-day retreat themed ‘Anti-Corruption, Financial Fraud, Transformational Leadership, and Ethical Values in the Workplace’, jointly organised by ANHI Consultants International and the Kano State Government in Kaduna.
According to a statement by the governor’s spokesman, Sanusi Dawakin-Tofa, Yusuf emphasised that every action, decision, and policy must reflect the values of transparency, honesty, and accountability.
