The governorship candidate of the African Democratic Congress in Sokoto State, Manir Dan’iya, has pledged to revitalise the state civil service, restore meritocracy and implement policies aimed at reducing poverty if elected governor in the 2027 general elections.
Dan’iya, popularly known as the Walin Sokoto, made the commitment while receiving a delegation of civil servants, including administrative officers, finance officers and local government personnel, who paid him a Sallah homage and declared support for his gubernatorial aspiration.
Addressing the delegation on Sunday, the ADC candidate described the civil service as the engine room of government, stressing that effective governance and sustainable development depend largely on a motivated and professional workforce.
“A strong civil service is the engine room of government. When civil servants are treated fairly, motivated appropriately, and allowed to discharge their responsibilities without discrimination, governance becomes more efficient, and development becomes more visible,” he said.
