Barr . Muhyi Magaji Rimingado, the reinstated Chairman of the Kano State Public Complaints and Anti-corruption Commission has resumed duty with an assurance that no staff of the organization would be victimized for the role he or she played in his suspension.

He, however, stressed the need for them to be more productive in the discharge of their duty 


Muhyi Rimingado said this in a statement he issued in Kano and a copy available to The Reporters on Saturday, after he addressed members of staff of the commission and consulted with stakeholders in Kano.


The chairman allayed the fears of the member staff of the commission and anxiety that they would be victimized for betraying him or take revenge on all those responsible for his predicament.


“I assure you that I won’t look back. What happened is destined to happen.


“So, there is no time to waste on victimizing anybody for betrayal or taking revenge on persons that schemed my suspension.


“It is all history today as we are vindicated by competent courts of law. "We move on with our mandate,” he said.


He, however, advised the workers to buckle up for more work as they would be expected to perform optimally and deliver on given tasks within timeframes.


Muhyi Rimingado also solicited their maximum support and cooperation to combat corruption in the state and upscale public trust in government.


Our recalls that Rimingado was first suspended from office for a month in July 2021, by former governor Abdullahi Ganduje over sundry allegations of rejecting to work with an account officer posted from the state Ministry of Finance.

Ganduje later terminated his appointment in January 2022 and this promoted Muhyi Rimingado to file a suit before the National Industrial Court in Abuja and Kano, challenging the actions and seeking redress on his fundamental human rights, respectively.


The courts ruled in his favor and ordered the state government to not only pay all his dues but also reinstate him for failing to respect the laws establishing the anti-graft agency.


Governor Abba Yusuf, on Wednesday, announced Rimingado’s immediate reinstatement in compliance with the court order and asked him to complete his five years tenure.
