Barely eight months after taking over the mantle of leadership, Governor Mohammed Abubakar of Bauchi state has finally submitted 15 cabinet nominees to the state assembly for screening.
The 15 nominees were picked from the 20 Local Government Areas that make up the state.
This was just as there have been protests in some LGAs especially Tafawa-Balewa where stakeholders had kicked against the nominee from the area saying they were not consulted before he was picked by the governor.
The list of nominees was contained in a letter addressed to the speaker, Bauchi state House of Assembly dated 5th January, 2016 signed by the secretary to the state government Bello Shehu Ilelah , a copy of which was made available to National Mirror.
The letter read: I am directed to forward herewith the list of fifteen nominees for screening and confirmation as commissioners in Bauchi state government
Abubakar had further requested the members of the House to go through the list of the nominees for confirmation as commissioners.
Those nominated are Nasirudeen Muhammed, Tafawa-Balewa LGA, Ali Abubakar Tatari Zaki, Ibrahim Yakubu Umar Toro LGA.
Others are Garba Sarki Mohammed Akuyam Misau, Asabe Mohammed, Hamma Alkalri, Dr. Audu Gani Bogoro, Bogoro LGA among others.
The governor solicits the house usual cooperation and wish members best regards in their legislative obligations
In the same vein, there have been protests and criticism since the unveiling of the nominees by the governor as stakeholders in some LGAs had allegedly lambasted Abubakar for not consulting with them appropriately as agreed during the campaign period.
Senator Ali Wakili told journalists that the governor has the constitutional right to appoint a commissioner, but said the governor had promised to consult stakeholders in Tafawa-Balewa LGA before picking a nominee from the area, a promise he said he failed to fulfill
