Former Kano LG Chairman Returns to Tailoring After Office, Champions Vocational Skills and Self Reliance. Former Chairman of Kumbotso Local Government Area in Kano State, Abdullahi Gali Shitu, has returned to his tailoring business following the completion of his tenure in public office, drawing widespread attention for his message on the dignity of labour and the importance of vocational skills. His decision has been widely praised by many Nigerians, who see it as a positive example of self reliance and a reminder that political office should not be viewed as a lifelong career. Speaking on his return to the profession, Shitu reportedly encouraged young people and public office holders to acquire practical skills that can provide sustainable livelihoods beyond government appointments. He stressed that vocational training and entrepreneurship remain vital pathways to economic independence, particularly in a country where public sector opportunities are limited.
