Bauchi gov reappoints Mukhtar Gidado as media aide

Bauchi State Governor, Senator Bala Abdulkadir Mohammed, has reappointed Mukhtar Mohammed Gidado as his Special Adviser on Media and Publicity.

Gidado’s reappointment was conveyed in a letter signed by Danjuma Garba, Permanent Secretary, General Services Department, on behalf of the Secretary to the State Government (SSG), directing the governor’s media aide to continue functioning in that capacity.

According to the letter, Gidadi is exempted from the disengagement order issued on 25th May 2023 to all political appointees, which is based on his track records, hard work, trustworthiness, dedication, commitment and wealth of experience.

“This is to inform you that His Excellency, Sen. Bala Abdulkadir Mohammed, CON, (Kauran Bauchi), the Executive Governor of Bauchi State, has approved your exemption from the disengagement order.

“Accordingly, you are to remain and continue serving as the special adviser, media and publicity,” the letter read in part.

It then urged the governor’s media aide to bring the attributes that set him aside to bear while discharging his duty.

“It is therefore expected that you would continue to bring these qualities to bear in the discharge of this onerous responsibility and justify the confidence repose in you,” it added.
