The Katsina State Governor, Malam Dikko Umaru Radda, has sacked the General Manager of Katsina State Television (KTTV), Malam Abba Zayyan.
The appointment which takes effect immediately is predicted on allegations of Zayyan’s inability to key into the Building Your Future Agenda of the administration.
A statement on Tuesday noted that the Government accussed Zayyan pf being unable to bring in the desired face-lift to the organization’s affairs despite massive investments by the State Government.
The Governor noted that the administration had provided modern equipment, upgraded infrastructure and full institutional support to make KTTV a vibrant, professional and competitive station capable of projecting Katsina positively.
He expressed disappointment that the station has continued to operate below expectation and has failed to effectively communicate government policies and programmes to the people of Katsina State and the wider audience.
The Governor however directed the most senior officer of the station to take over in an acting capacity, pending the appointment of a substantive General Manager.
He thanked Malam Abba Zayyan for his service to the State and wished him well in his future endeavours.
