Tambuwal dissolves cabinet

Gov. Aminu Tambuwal of Sokoto State, on Tuesday, dissolved the State Executive Council and disengaged other appointed political office holders in the state.

Tambuwal wished the ex-council members well and prayed for their successes in future endeavours. He said this in his valedictory session with the state council where he commended members of the cabinet for their services to the state in different capacities.

Tambuwal recalled that in July 2018, he dissolved the executive members when he decamped from the All Progressives Congress (APC) to the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), saying he did not force any member to join him.

He said that his administration ensured transparency and accountable transactions which allowed him to sleep well.

“I can sleep well because I ran a transparent government and I can give account of any action I have taken.

“As human, I may have offended some of you, I beg for forgiveness. “On behalf of the council, I seek for forgiveness of the entire Sokoto people on any of my decision they found wrong,” Tambuwal had said.

The governor dissolved the executive council members, which included commissioners, Special Advisers and Special Assistants.
