Former Kumbotso Local Government Chairman in Kano State, Abdullahi Gali Shitu, popularly known as Comrade Abdullahi Gali Basaf, has returned to tailoring full-time after losing his office through a court ruling, saying the trade offers greater stability than politics. Even in politics, my tailoring business helped me financially to support my campaigns and organisations,” he said. The former council chairman currently runs a tailoring shop in Sheka Ward that employs about 20 people. Reflecting on life after office, Basaf described tailoring as “a noble profession, even greater than holding political office.” Although he has returned fully to tailoring, Basaf said he is not abandoning politics entirely, insisting that public engagement remains part of his life.
