The Kano state governor, Alhaji Abba Yusuf, has requested members of the state House of Assembly to move to a convenient site for legislative functions so that the Assembly Complex can be demolished and replaced with a new model.
The governor, in a letter addressed to the speaker of the house, Hon. Ismail Falgore, appreciated the cordial relationship between the executive arm under his leadership and the legislative arm under the leadership of the speaker and further announced his intention to demolish the building.
Reading the letter on the floor of the house during plenary, the speaker announced the intention of the state government to construct a new and befitting chamber that would stand the test of time.
Therefore, the governor admonished them to move to a convenient site where they could continue to effectively carry out their legislative functions before the completion of the new chamber.
In response to the letter, the majority of the House, including Hon. Lawan Husseini, urged the governor to ensure transparency and due process in awarding the contract.
He advised that the contract should be awarded to a competent contractor who will ensure standards and project completion at the appropriate time.
