Kebbi State Governor, Nasir Idris, has officially endorsed the establishment of Ummu District within Zuru Local Government Area. This development comes after the approval of Aliyu Ibrahim Gujiya as the new district head. Commissioner for Local Government and Chieftaincy Affairs, Garba Dutsinmari, revealed this significant decision in a statement from Birnin Kebbi on Friday.
The new district emerged from Rafin Zuru District, encompassing eight villages: Paso, Sondoro, Denkre, Akwanchi, D’hava (Hato), Daklo, Ummu (Gari), and Bedi. Dutsinmari highlighted that the creation of Ummu District aligns with Kebbi State Local Government Law of 2008, specifically Section 10, Subsections (A) and (B), which pertain to district formation and head appointment.
Gujiya's selection was made due to his proven experience and capability to effectively serve the district's residents. Dutsinmari emphasized that Gujiya must manage his responsibilities with integrity, honesty, and transparency, assuring him of the state government's support and commitment to enhancing grassroots administration in the new district.
This move signifies Kebbi's ongoing efforts to bolster traditional institutions and bring administrative services closer to the people.
