Governor Abdulrahman Abdulrazaq of Kwara State inaugurated three top officials of his administration on Friday, with Prof. Mamman Saba Jibril returning as the Secretary to the State Government.

Newsmen reports that the governor swore in Prince Abdulkadir Aliyu Mahe, who was until Friday afternoon the SSG, as the new Chief of Staff (CoS).

The governor similarly inaugurated Barrister Murtala Sambo as the Special Adviser on Legal Matters, a position he occupied until May 29, 2023, at the end of the last dispensation.

 

 

The governor urged the new officials to be people-centric as they embarked on their official duties, saying: “The tasks ahead are truly enormous. I urge you to be transparent and loyal and be propelled only by public interest.

“We want to leave a legacy of improved well-being of our people, especially, human capital development. Kwara is now a reference point in many positive areas. Our goal is to beat our own records positively.

“At this time of national belt-tightening, I urge all of you to act in a way that reflects the current realities of our country.

“As senior government officials, you have a task to properly coordinate officials and the business of government and ensure harmonious relationships between the government and the people.”
