Governor Abba Yusuf has approved the reinstatement of Muhyi Magaji as Chairman of the Public Complaints and Anti-Corruption Commission (PCACC) to complete his tenure.
This is contained in a statement issued by the governor’s Press Secretary, Bature Tofa in Kano on Wednesday.
Magaji was suspended from office by former governor Abdullahi Ganduje-led administration for gloating about Abba Kyari’s fate.
After his suspension, Magaji dragged the state government before the Industrial Court which ordered his reinstatement to complete his tenure.
The court also ordered the government to pay his outstanding salaries since the period of his suspension.
According to the government statement, “the reinstatement is with immediate effect and in compliance with court order.”
