Kano State Governor, Abba Kabir Yusuf, on Tuesday officially swore in Murtala Sule Garo as the new Deputy Governor of the state.
The inauguration ceremony, initially slated for the Coronation Hall at the Government House, was later relocated to the Africa House within the same Government House premises.
Shortly after taking the oath of office, Garo pledged his commitment to work closely with the Yusuf-led administration to advance its development agenda.
He assured residents of his dedication to promoting good governance, unity, and continuity in state policies.
The event was attended by top government officials and prominent political figures, including former governors Abdullahi Umar Ganduje and Ibrahim Shekarau.
The appointment follows the resignation of former Deputy Governor Aminu Gwarzo, who stepped down on March 27, 2026, amid political tensions, allegations of misconduct, and impeachment proceedings initiated by the state House of Assembly.
Gwarzo later joined the African Democratic Congress (ADC) but subsequently resigned from the party in May 2026.
