THE Kano State Deputy Governor, Prof. Hafiz Abubakar, on Sunday tendered his letter of resignation to Gov. Abdullahi Ganduje.

Abubakar’s notice of resignation was conveyed in a letter he wrote to Ganduje today.

The outgoing deputy governor said he wanted to remain in office until the end of his tenure, but chose to resign due to irreconcilable differences with the governor.

“Your excellency but with the current and persistent irreconcilable differences on matters relating to governance and government operations, personal opinions, and the concept of, and respect for, democratic ideals and values, it would be unfair to my conscience, to the good people of Kano State and to you as the head of the government to continue to remain in my position as the Deputy Governor.

“Your Excellency would recall several instances I had to draw your attention to the need to understand and appreciate these differences in order to avoid drifting into the kind of unnecessary crisis we are facing today, but to no avail,” the letter read in part.

“I have endured immeasurable and unjustifiable humiliation for over two and half years without any reason other than my principled position on issues of governance and the desire to keep the government on track, ” the letter added.

Abubakar, a loyalist of former Governor Rabiu Kwankwaso, has been at loggerheads with the state governor, Abdullahi Ganduje, for siding with Senator Kwankwaso’s faction in the state.

When contacted, the state Commissioner for Information, Malam Muhammad Garba, confirmed the receipt of the resignation letter by Ganduje.
