The new Head of Service, Alhaji Abubakar Muhammad (Mni), was appointed after the retirement of his retired predecessor, Alhaji Sani Garba Shuni.

Speaking at the ceremony, Gov. Tambuwal said the appointment of the new Head of Service was based on merit and seniority.

To that effect, th governor said he has directed the atate local government education secretaries to submit the authentic list of their teaching and non teaching staff in their respective local government areas.

He said they were also cautioned to forthright while carrying out the assignment, noting that anyone of them found wanting will be called to account for his wrongdoing.

Tambuwal added that the exercise is not to witch-hunt anybody, rather it is to cleanse the Civil Service system for effective service delivery.

Turning to the retired Head of Service, the governor appreciated his tenure in office and announced that both him and the person he succeeded, Alhaji Buhari Bello Kware will be part of a technical team to work towards the actualization of the Moroccan cooperative business model.
