Bauchi State Governor accepts the resignation of his deputy

Bauchi State Governor Mohammed Abubakar has accepted the resignation of his deputy Nuhu Gidado.

A statement released by his Special Adviser, Media, Mr Ali M. Ali, the Governor described Gidado's tenure with him as a "meritorious" one which deserves "commendation".

"We received the resignation of our Deputy Governor, Engr. Nuhu Gidado.

" On behalf of the people of Bauchi state, I want to thank him for his meritorious service while in office."

"He remains vital to our administration and party.

"I wish him well in his future endeavours, and he can count on me for support.

"I am also optimistic he will avail the state of his service when called upon in the future," said Ali in the statement, quoting the governor.

In a letter to the Governor dated May 16, 2018, Nuhu Gidado cited lack of interest in the job as his reason for resignation. Gidado wrote, "Ordinarily, I should have remained up to the end of the tenure, but, with the currently dampened spirit and waning zeal as it relates to my official engagements, my continued stay will not be fair and truthful to you as my brother and leader."

"In this regard, I feel sure that, Your Excellency will readily recollect the most recent one – on – one discussion we had, precisely, on Thursday, April 19th, 2018, in your office, where, among other issues, I expressed to you, my contemplation to ‘step aside', if need be, in order to free my conscience."

"I regret to say that it has become necessary to yield to that inner calling, and may this development be in accordance with the blessed will and guidance of Allah,"

He also appreciated the Governor and people of Bauchi for the opportunity to serve
