Alleged adultery: Gov Namadi lifts suspension on Jigawa commissioner

Following his clearance of involvement in alleged adultery by a Kano Upper Shari’a Court, the Jigawa State Government has lifted the suspension of the Commissioner for Special Duties, Auwalu Sankara.

Governor Malam Umar Namadi lifted the suspension on Sankara with immediate effect.

This was contained in a statement signed and made available to newsmen by the Secretary to the Government of Jigawa State, Malam Bala Ibrahim.

“It would be recalled that the commissioner was suspended based on alleged involvement in an incidence reported before Kano State Hisbah Board.

“The lifting of the suspension followed his discharge and acquittal by an Upper Sha’riah Court in Kano, Kano.”

Already Sankara has been directed to report back to his duty post.

When contacted on phone, the commissioner, Auwalu Sankara, thanked God for clearing him of any wrong doing and also commended Governor Umar Namadi and his cabinet for their understanding during his trying period.
