Commissioner Who Celebrated Kyari’s Death Sacked

Governor Abdullahi Ganduje of Kano State has sacked Mu`azu Magaji as the state’s commissioner for works and infrastructure after he was found celebrating the death of Mallam Abba Kyari, President Muhammadu Buhari chief of staff.

The news of the sack was conveyed by the governor’s spokesman Salihu Yakasi on his Twitter handle.

He said, “H.E @GovUmarGanduje has relieved the appointment of the commissioner of Works and Infrastructure, Engr. Mu’azu Magaji with immediate effect following his unguarded utterances against the person of the late Chief of Staff to the President, Malam Abba Kyari.”

Magaji had purportedly celebrated Kyari’s death on Facebook writing in Hausa and English thus:
“Win win… Nigeria is free and Abba kyari ya mutu a cikin annoba… Mutuwar shahada in Har da Imani mutum ya cika”.

The post translated reads thus: “Win win… Nigeria is free and Abba Kyari has died in the epidemic… the death of a martyr… if he is a believer, the person is complete.”

In other posts, Magaji said:

“For the good of Nigeria and Mr President… The CoS office should be split… A PPS (principal private secretary) and a humble manager of his office as CoS… It is currently too powerful for a non-elected official.”

“Democracy & democratic equity does not by itself strive.. It must be guarded and protected… One person, just one person can set a dangerous precedence!

“When you are all done with the pretence and crocodile tears, we will do a review in overriding interest of the Nation and its people!

“I am perfectly aware of the storm I am in… The fact however is I know what comes from the heart or that what is purchased! You all will come around,” Mr Magaji posted.
