THUR SEPT 25 2025-theGBJournal| Kano State Governor Abba Kabir Yusuf on Wednesday signed the release of N5 billion as the fifth tranche of gratuities and death benefits for the State’s retired civil servants and their families.
This latest disbursement brings the total payments to N27 billion, out of the N48 billion backlog of liabilities inherited from the previous administration.
”This initiative is a testament to our administration’s resolve to restore dignity and justice to workers who dedicated their lives to serving the state,” Governor Yusuf said during the official presentation of cheques to beneficiaries in Kano.
”I am hopeful that we will clear all outstanding gratuity and death benefits, totalling N21 billion, before the end of this tenure.
Furthermore, I believe these payments have significantly boosted morale among civil servants and reinforced public confidence in the government’s commitment to welfare.”
