Tinubu Gave Kano Over 40 Key Political Appointments
Lawmaker Abdulmumin Jibrin claims that President Bola Tinubu has appointed over 40 Kano indigenes to key federal positions to reward the state's political support. While the administration highlights these appointments as evidence of commitment, the specific count remains unverified by independent records.
Why it matters
