This was confirmed in a Press statement signed and made available to journalists in Bauchi by the Special Adviser to the Governor Bala, Comrade Mukthar Gidado Jarma of Alkaleri, where he said the Executive Governor of the state Bala Abdukadir Muhammad  has endorsed the resignation with immediate effect.

Following the development, the statement, announced the Chief of Staff, Government House, Bauchi , Dr. Aminu Hassan Gamawa, as the new SSG in an acting capacity.

According to the statement, The Executive Governor Bala Muhammad, while on behalf of good people of Bauchí State, appreciated and thank the former SSG for serving Bauchi government and its people for a period of Three and half years, wished him well in his future endeavors.

Our Correspondent in Bauchi observed that, the surprised and unexpected resignation of the former SSG Barrister Ibrahim Kassim, which threw many politicians in Bauchí into sadness and joy, necessitated the extraordinary meeting of the state Executive Council that was held on Thursday, 12th December at the Council Chamber of the Government House Bauchi.

However, all efforts to get some hints from government and the former SSG who spent three and half years as Bauchi state SSG, on reasons behind the unexpected resignation and the quick endorsement of the resignation by Governor Bala Muhammad, considering their close relationships, proved abortive up to the time of filling this report.
