Former Deputy Governor of Kano State, Aminu Abdussalam Gwarzo, has explained why he stepped down from his position.
In a resignation letter addressed to Governor Abba Kabir Yusuf, Gwarzo said he chose to leave office voluntarily so the government could continue its work without distractions.
“I hereby tender my voluntary resignation from office, with effect from 27th March 2026. This decision has been reached after careful consultations and deep reflection,” he said.
He explained that his action was guided by his commitment to peace, stability, and the overall interest of the people of the state.
Gwarzo stressed that his resignation should not be misunderstood as an admission of guilt.
“In view of the prevailing circumstances, I have taken this step in the spirit of responsibility and statesmanship, to allow the government and the State to move forward without undue distractions,” he added.
“This resignation is made voluntarily and in good faith. It should not be construed as an admission of any wrongdoing, but rather as a conscious decision in the interest of institutional integrity, democratic values, and public service.”
The former deputy governor said his priority remains the progress of Kano State, noting that stepping aside at this time would help maintain focus on governance.
