KANO State Commissioner for Information and Internal Affairs, Malam Muhammad Garba, says the State Governor Abdullahi Ganduje is highly committed to ensuring peaceful and seamless transition from his administration to the incoming government.

Garba made this known in a statement issued on Sunday in Kano. 

He stated that the main transition committee constituted by the governor and the various sub-committees were working towards smooth handing over of power in the state.

He therefore dismissed insinuations by the New Nigeria People’s Party (NNPP) that the outgoing administration was undermining the transition programme.

The commissioner pointed out that the main transition committee and the various sub-committees  at the levels of Ministries Departments and Agencies (MDAs) are working tirelessly and have made substantial progress towards preparing a handing over notes to the incoming administration.

Garba also explained that, while the transition committee by the outgoing government prepares final handing over report, the committee by the incoming administration will eventually receive the report at appropriate time.

He noted that the inclusion of  representation from the incoming government was based on the need to ensure transparency and openness in the process.

He added that since the outgoing government is having all the relevant data and information at its disposal which the transition committee is gathering, the incoming government needs the least representation in the committee, just as it obtains in other states where transition is between different political parties.

Garba also noted that the aim of the transition committee was to prepare a handing over from one government to another and not presenting or promoting any form of ideology. 

The commissioner indicated that the outgoing government expect that the issue of ideology and new programmes to be initiated by the NNPP should wait for the unveiling when the new government is inaugurated.

Garba further called on the elements of the incoming government to tread carefully and work for a smooth transition process and avoid anything that could sabotage the process.
