The Kwankwasiyya Movement has commended former political appointees who resigned their positions in the Kano State Government in solidarity with its leader, Senator Rabiu Musa Kwankwaso, describing the action as a demonstration of courage, loyalty, and commitment to principle.
In a statement issued on Sunday and signed by its spokesperson, Habibu Sale Mohammed, PhD, the movement said the resignations reflected the foundational values and enduring ideals upon which the Kwankwasiyya Movement was established.
The movement expressed appreciation to the affected officials, noting that their decision to voluntarily relinquish their positions underscored a willingness to sacrifice personal comfort and privilege in defence of honour, conviction, and political integrity.
“The Kwankwasiyya Movement wishes to express its profound appreciation and heartfelt gratitude to all patriots who have demonstrated uncommon courage, loyalty, and commitment by voluntarily resigning their respective positions in solidarity with our leader and principal, Senator Rabiu Musa Kwankwaso,” the statement read.

Those who resigned include former commissioners, special advisers, special assistants, managing directors, and executive secretaries. According to the movement, the decisions were taken with full awareness of the benefits and opportunities being forfeited.
“These actions stand as a powerful testament to integrity, conviction, and selfless service,” it added.
The statement further disclosed that Senator Kwankwaso had earlier appealed to the former appointees to reconsider their decisions, explaining that the advice was borne out of appreciation for their contributions to governance and institutional development in Kano State.
“Our principal, Senator Rabi’u Musa Kwankwaso, in his characteristic humility and statesmanship, earlier advised those who resigned to reconsider their decisions, not out of weakness, but out of deep appreciation for their roles in public service and governance,” the movement stated.
However, it noted that the former appointees maintained their stance, citing irreconcilable differences between their personal convictions and what they described as the prevailing directives and orientation of the Gandujiyya-led Kano State Government.
The movement also commended members who resigned from local government councils, including council secretaries, supervisory councillors, and personal assistants, describing their actions as evidence of grassroots commitment to justice, fairness, and accountable governance.
Reaffirming its philosophy, the Kwankwasiyya Movement stated that it “is not built on positions or privileges, but on sacrifice, service, and the pursuit of good governance and social justice.”
It assured members and supporters that the movement remains united and resolute, reiterating that no pressure or inducement would derail its cause or weaken its commitment to its ideals.
