The Kano State House of Assembly has suspended Muhammad Nazir Yau, Chairman of Rano Local Government, for three months to facilitate an investigation into allegations of misconduct, abuse of office, and misappropriation of funds raised by his councilors. The suspension was approved during a plenary session on Wednesday, with the decision following a report from the House Committee on Public Petition, chaired by the Majority Leader. The allegations stem from claims of financial irregularities and mismanagement, prompting the assembly to act to ensure a thorough probe. The committee is tasked with submitting its findings within the suspension period, though no specific details of the accusations have been publicly detailed beyond the councillors’ complaints.
