By SaharaReporters, New York

As earlier reported in December 2012 by this medium, about five key aides of the late Governor Patrick Ibrahim Yakowa of Kaduna State were today relieved of their appointments and replaced by the new governor, Mr. Mukhtar Ramalan Yero.

A source in Kaduna Government House confirmed to SaharaReporters that the state Commissioner of Information, Saidu Adamu, made the announcement on the Kaduna state-run media houses.

The aides booted out includes, Lawal Samaila Abdullahi, Secretary to the State Government (SSG),  Abokie Galadima, Chief of Staff Government House Kaduna, Reuben Buhari, Senior Special Assistant Media, Yohanna Allamagni, Principal Private Secretary,  Engr. Bala, Political Adviser.

The officials were replaced with the following, Hamza Ishaq Danmahawayi as SSG, Yahaya Aminu Chief of Staff, Ahmed Maiyaki Director General Media and Publicity to the Governor, Aliyu Samaila PPS, and Garba Madami as Political Adviser.

The source added that the new governor carried out the action in good faith as a step of taking full control of running the affairs of Kaduna State, adding that there is nothing like wiping away Yakowa's legacy from  the government.

MARK THE ENEMIES OF NIGERIA

i think it is high time we started marking the enemies of the country, yes we have bad political leaders but the way and manners the journalist caption and report news can carry a very negative effect,If you don't have news to report or you don't know how to report one ask professional instead of writing unnecessary implications.

Stop this Christian/Muslim

Stop this Christian/Muslim stuff. It is madness. Competence beats religion any day.

NO SINGLE CHRISTIAN IN NEW APPOINTMENT

Look at the names of the newly appointed officials, no single christian appointed there. I hope Southern Kaduna guys will open their eyes and thinking come 2015 by voting wisely

THEY ARE NOT QUALIFIED TO OCCUPY THE OFFICES

With the exception of the new DG media and POL Adviser the rest of the new appointees lack the cognate experience to manage the offices shared to them.The appointment was done based on come and chop basis not merit. The new setting lacked the capacity to take Kaduna state to the next level.

Gov. Yero of Kd state!

Hahahaha! Up Hausa/fulani..

New appointment in Kaduna State

@Udam. From you write-up indicates that you don't know the composition of Kaduna state. You made mentioned of a wrong statement that Christian are the majority in the state. There is need for you to go and read the history of Northern Nigeria. All things being equal the same thing when Yakowa did during his time is what Yero is doing now. Please allow him to do a good for good people of Kaduna State. The time of politics base on tribe, religion bias has passed and we have advancement in our civilisation in Kaduna State

If not that u'r fool how can

If not that u'r fool how can u open ur mouth and say southen kaduna are morethan half population of kaduna state? And by the way, what do u expect the governor to do, to work with some body's trusted people and leave his own trusted ones? Or why don't u fool talk when Mr. Ebele put his own people instead of leaving Yar'aduas?? Mumu

Aha...! Dats very gud and this is just d begginning ov positive change in kaduna state.keep it up.

ILL-MOTIVATED REPORTING STYLE! ALWAYS!!!

Why is Sahara Reporters always happy to stoke enmity and chaos? From Mountain of Fire Church indecent filming of the service (without permission), Sowore and his Sahara dogs have continued to report slant news with a view to pitching Kaduna state people against each other! Why this contrived, ill-motivated headline: 'Key Aides Of Late Governor Yakowa Ousted From Kaduna State', rather than 'Yero replaces Yakowa's top aides', or 'Yero sacks 5 of Yakowa's aides, replaces them with his men'.

Meanwhile, did you expect him to leave the men with whom he never worked directly? Didn't Jonathan sack ALL of Yar'Adua's men as soon as he got the reins?

Sahara Reporters, your bias and rabid religious and ethnic hatred is just too glaring! And this is coming from a Yoruba man (that i am)!!!
To the discerning, Sahara Reporters’ credibility is long gone!

What did you exepct him to do? To retain them?

NA LIE JOOO NEW GOV.

Na lie jooo this na a case of wiping away Yakowa's legacy from the government and bring his own boys wey go do the thiefing job for him and cover his track una think sey we be fools abi may God continue to save us from this rouges that called themselves leaders.

Eheh na!

A'ahh, eheh now! Wetin else dem want make the governor do? Dem wan make him carry surround himself with people wey he no sabi abi wey he no trust? Na so life be my brothers. Next time, when the southern kaduna people take control (if at all), they shouldn't advise whomsoever happen to be incharge to do politics of "exclusion" as Kuka et-al did. Afterall, what goes around, comes around. I didn't imagine in anyway, how the former SSG would have survived Yero knowing well fully what he did to Yero when Yakowa was alive! I wish people learn lessons from situations like this - No condition is permanent, even to Yero himself; he needs to treat all passionately as he will definately not be there one day!

The Hausa/fool-ani Sweep Continues!

In asmuch as the new governor has the right to bring in his team, that right is tempered on the fact that the new team does not have to be completely made of Hausa/fool-ani moslems at the expence of Southern Kaduna Christians who constitute more than half the population of that state. The composition of the top government functionaries ought to reflect the ethnic and religious diversity of the state.

It is a wise move to flush

It is a wise move to flush out the Fulfude speaking born to rule from Sudaniyya politics. Good riddance to bad rubbish. While the people of Sudaniyya are at it, they should get rid of Col Arna Jack Gowon, for he has brought the people a lot of calamity in recent days.

Ramalan Yero in action.

Never, in the history of leadership had a leader who mounted the echelon of power through circumstances of death, or military coup been successful without critical decisions. Hausa speaking adage says; 'A king may not know wrong, but certainly his lieutenants will do'. Gov.Yero must be michivaleous to start on good footing. He must be a lion to be able to frighten off the woofs and a fox to identify traps.

A Positive Expectation

Well, that is a positive thing to do, after all, this is a recent and another administration altogether. If you want to be out of debt and financially buoyant, look at this website (https://www.sfimg.com/12072914) i think this one is real.

This is normal, GEJ did same

This is normal, GEJ did same to Yaraduwa staff when he took over.

Positive Expectation

Well, it is a normal thing to do, after all, it is another administration all together. Well, if you want to get out of debts and be buoyant financially, this website is for you: https://www.sfimg.com/12072914

Mischief Reportage

The caption of this story looks quite mischievous. Instead of 'Key Aids of Late Governor Yakowa Ousted from Kaduna State', the piece should've been titled, Governor Yero Appoints New Aids, or something like that, if indeed no mischief is intended.

What is the big deal if Governor Yero changes such strategic principal officers? Or did anyone expect him to retain the aids he inherited from late Yakowa?

I believe that anyone in the position of the new governor would've done the same thing. As a matter of fact more should be expected. I am sure Governor Mukhtar Yero will effect some changes to the state Exco in order for him to be in full control.

Journalism should give peace a chance by allowing the people of Kaduna state to bemoan their beloved late governor while developing the necessary strategies to move on with life.

What Else Do Anyone Expect

Of course, this is expected. The Governor must have his close and personal confidants whom he can confidently work with. But instead of booting them out of government house, he should have reassigned them elsewhere; either in the government house or to any of the ministries.

Good to go Ramalan Yero is

Good to go Ramalan Yero is your turn

SR and false Alarm

There is nothing wrong or sinister in removing and appointing your personal staff. SR, dont make a mountain out of a mole hill. They should have resigned immediately after the unfortunate death of their principal (Yakowa).

DEMOLISHED SO SOON?

Three kings for three seasons, soldier go, soldier come. No permanent friends, but permanent interests. Oba meta, igba meta. How time flies!
