Kebbi State Governor, Nasir Idris, has reinstated the Commissioner for Animal Health, Husbandry and Fisheries, Alhaji Kabir Usman Alaramma, four months after he was suspended from office.\n<\/p>\n
The reinstatement, which takes immediate effect, was announced on Monday by the Commissioner for Information and Culture, Alhaji Yakubu Ahmed-BK, shortly after the State Executive Council meeting presided over by the governor at the Government House, Birnin Kebbi.\n<\/p>\n
Ahmed-BK said the governor had directed that the suspension imposed on Alaramma be lifted, paving the way for his immediate return to office.\n<\/p>\n
\u201cConsequently, he has been reinstated to his position and is hereby directed to resume his official duties with immediate effect,\u201d the commissioner said.<\/p>\n
Alaramma was suspended in June 2026 by the state government, although the government did not publicly provide specific details of the allegations against him.<\/p>\n
The suspension was announced in a statement by the Secretary to the State Government, Yakubu Bala-Tafida, who directed the commissioner to hand over all government property, official documents and responsibilities in his custody to the ministry\u2019s Permanent Secretary pending further directives. <\/p>\n
His suspension came around the same period the Kebbi chapter of the All Progressives Congress suspended its state chairman, Abubakar Muhammad Kana-Zuru, and the Zuru Local Government Area party chairman, Aliyu Abubakar Abiola, over alleged anti-party activities and other party-related infractions.<\/p>\n
However, the government did not state whether Alaramma\u2019s reinstatement followed the conclusion of an investigation or any other administrative process.\n<\/p>\n
The Ministry of Animal Health, Husbandry and Fisheries plays a significant role in Kebbi\u2019s agricultural economy, with responsibilities covering livestock development, animal disease control, veterinary services, fisheries production and pastoralist affairs.\n<\/p>\n
Kebbi is endowed with substantial livestock and fisheries resources, making the ministry central to the state\u2019s efforts to improve animal production, strengthen food security and expand agricultural opportunities.\n<\/p>\n
The state government said the reinstatement reflected its commitment to effective governance, administrative responsibility and sustained engagement with political stakeholders across the state.\n<\/p>\n
Alaramma is expected to resume his responsibilities as a member of the State Executive Council following the governor\u2019s directive.\n<\/p>\n
