Sanusi: We’re Honoured To Call A Man Of Such Calibre To Drive Our Development – El-Rufai
Malam Nasir El-Rufai , Governor of Kano State, says the Kaduna State Government is honoured to be able to call on the services of a man of such calibre as Muhammadu Sanusi II to drive its development.
The governor stated this in a letter offering Muhammadu Sanusi II appointment into the board of the Kaduna Investment Promotion Agency (KADIPA), about 24 hours after he was removed as Emir of Kano.
According to the governor who spoke through his spokesman, Mr Muyiwa Adekeye, on Tuesday, “the appointment is part of the reconstitution of the board of KADIPA, which is statutorily chaired by the Deputy Governor, and has as internal members other senior officials of the Kaduna State Government.”
“Kaduna State hopes to benefit from the profile, experience, intellect and networks of His Highness, Muhammad Sanusi, who before becoming Emir, had built a solid reputation in global financial circles.
“Malam Nasir El-Rufai said that Kaduna State is honoured to be able to call on the services of a man of such calibre to drive its development,’’ the statement added.
“The Governor also said that he is confident that the new board, which contains the most senior officers of the state will further propel KADIPA to greater success in attracting investments to Kaduna State.”
The statement disclosed that the government carefully chose the external members to further reinforce the investment credentials of the state.
“El-Rufai has expressed his gratitude to members of the reconstituted board of KADIPA for agreeing to serve”.
Deputy Governor of Kaduna State, Dr Hadiza Balarabe will chair the board while His Highness Muhammadu Sanusi II will be Vice-Chairman.
