Gov. Abba Yusuf of Kano State on Monday swore in Mallam Ibrahim Wudil as the new Commissioner for Housing Development.
The oath was administered by the Attorney-General and Commissioner for Justice, Mallam Haruna Dederi, at Government House Kano.
After the swearing-in Yusuf urged Wudil to utilise his extensive experience to drive the state’s development and congratulated him on his new role.
The governor urged Wudil to ensure effective utilisation of cities developed during the administration of Rabiu Kwankwaso, including Kwankwassiya, Bandirawo, and Amana cities.
The governor expressed confidence in Wudil’s ability, citing his decades-long experience as an architect and his previous role as the Managing Director of Kano State Urban Planning and Development Authority.
“I’ve worked closely with him for decades and I know his capacity. I am sure he will not let us down,” the governor said.
The governor appealed to the new commissioner to use his vast experience in addressing the challenge of housing deficit in the state.
