Hassan Garban Kauye Farawa, the chairman of Kumbotso Local Government Area of Kano State, has appointed 55 special advisers and assistants.

Farawa said the gesture is in line with the mission of governor Abdullahi Ganduje to eradicate poverty.

While swearing-in the appointees, he urged them to discharge their duties diligently in order to move the local government forward.
