Newly appointed Commissioners and Special Advisers have been sworn-in by Yobe state Governor, Mai Mala Buni.
Spokesman, Abdullahi Bego, was among those who took oath of office. He is now to serve as Commissioner for Home Affairs, Information and Culture.
After the swearing in, the governor said, “I therefore, hold your feet to the fire – those of you who were sworn into office today (Friday). I will expect nothing from you other than stellar performance. I will expect that you will use your experience, your creativity and your drive to help our administration achieves its purpose.
“I want to be clear – I have personal confidence that the men and women who are now members of the state executive council and the special advisers whose counsel I will rely on, have the integrity, commitment and sense of purpose to prove every single day that our mantra of continuity, consolidation and innovation is fully on track. I have no doubt about that,” he said.
The governor urged the appointees to also give consideration to education, agriculture, healthcare and empowerment which remained key focus.
“We will also ensure that our people have access to clean water, and our civil service the resources it needs to support our developmental drive.”
Among the commissioners appointed is Barrister Isa Samanja who will serve as Commissioner for Justice.
