The Kano State House of Assembly has suspended the chairmen of Bebeji, Rogo and Bagwai Local Government Areas from office for three months.

The suspension was disclosed on Tuesday by the Special Adviser to Governor Abba Yusuf on New Media, Ibrahim Adam, in a post on his verified Facebook page.

According to the governor’s aide, the affected council chairmen will remain out of office throughout the three-month suspension.
