The Kano State government has suspended two principals for negligence of duty.
In a statement by the Ministry’s Director of Public Enlightenment, Balarabe Kiru, Umar Haruna, the state Commissioner for Education, said this on Monday.
The affected principals are the French Bilingual College and Chinese Bilingual College in Kwankwaso, Madobi Local Government Area of the state.
The Commissioner explained that the suspended principals were outside their respective schools when the team of take-up inspection paid a visit to monitor the commencement of the 2023/2024 first-term School Session.
According to the statement, the Commissioner approved the posting of Umar Sabo as Principal of French Bilingual Collage and Isyaku Umar Abdullahi as sit-in Principal of Chinese Bilingual Collage Kwankwaso, respectively.
The inspection team led by the Permanent Secretary of the Ministry, Hajiya Kubra Imam, discovered that students of the two colleges were not served food on Sunday, and their breakfast for today (Monday) was not ready up to the time for the visit.
The Commissioner expressed dismay over the unconcerned attitudes shown by the two Principals.
He directed them to hand over the School’s affairs to the new sit-in Principals and report to the ministry pending an investigation.
