JUST IN: El-Rufai Sacks all political appointees in Kaduna State

According to the directive, each notice of resignation must be submitted along with a handover note, signed by the political appointee on behalf of the MDA or office to which he or she had been appointed. All resignation letters should be properly addressed to the Principal Private Secretary to the Governor.
Nasir el-Rufai, Kaduna State Governor, has instructed all political appointees in the state to submit their resignation letters on or before April 30, as he prepares for his second term in office.
This decision, it is believed, will afford the Governor the opportunity to select the team for his second term in office.

Also, the decision is in accordance with his constitutional prerogative, which allows him to decide on re-appointments while giving the Kaduna State Ministry of Finance adequate time to compute severance payments and reconcile any liabilities.
