Kebbi State Governor, Nasir Idris, has appointed 200 APC party youths as Special Assistants on monthly salary, as part of efforts to rehabilitate political thugs and integrate them into governance. This move is in fulfillment of Governor Idris' promise to integrate political youths into mainstream society as productive members of growth and development.
The letters of appointment were presented to the youths at the State APC Secretariat on Thursday in Birnin Kebbi by the State Party Chairman, Abubakar Muhammadu Kana Zuru. Zuru praised Governor Idris for delivering on his campaign promises, noting that he has fulfilled 85% of his commitments as a veteran labour leader who understands the importance of service delivery.
According to Zuru, "Kauran Gwandu has not only transformed Kebbi but is also running an open and transparent administration, he is a benevolent leader." The State APC Youth Leader, Atiku BD Zauro, reminded party youths that it is now their responsibility to reciprocate the gesture by remaining law-abiding and well-behaved at public functions and gatherings.
Zauro expressed gratitude to Governor Idris for appointing hundreds of party youths as Special Assistants and placing them on monthly salary. One of the newly appointed Special Assistants, Mallam Shehu Kalala, pledged that all party youths have vowed to renounce thuggery, refrain from constituting a nuisance, and avoid chanting slogans or making noise at public gatherings where the governor is in attendance.
