The Kano State Government has ordered the immediate suspension of three principals of public secondary schools in the state for neglecting duty.
The state Director, Public Enlightenment, Ministry of Education, Ameen Yassar, confirmed the development today after the state Commissioner for Education, Umar Doguwa, visited the schools between 9am and 10am and discovered that the affected principals had yet to report to their duty posts.
