The Controversial Engr Magaji Muazu Purchase for Kano Governorship Aspirant Form

The former Commissioner of Works and Infrastructure in Kano State has purchased a nomination form for the Governorship position under the platform of People’s Democratic Party (PDP).

He told Politics Digest that he would update his supporters regularly on the core reasons for this aspiration and the agenda that he intended to focus on as he vied for the important responsibility.

“This journey is a win win for Kano and it’s people and by extension Northern Nigeria and the nation at large.

“Indeed the journey for Kano Sabuwa has began. After we seek God’s guidance, the prayers and support of the citizens will be appreciated,” he said.

Muazu Ahmad Magaji, popularly known as Dansarauniya) is an oil and gas engineer, activist, and a Nigerian politician from Kano state

He was born in Sarauniya village of Dawakin Tofa local government area of Kano State,.

He obtained his first School Certificate in 1980; he attended Dawaking Tofa Secondary school between 1980 and 1983, and obtained his National Diploma in Mechanical engineering from Kano State Polytechnic in 1989. He graduated with his Bachelor of Engineering in Mechanical Engineering from Bayero University Kano, and obtained his Masters in Oil & Gas Engineering from Robert Gordon University in 2000; he obtained qualifications in project management, oil & gas well engineering, geosciences and Information Technology in 2006.

Muazu started his career in the Kano State Civil Service Commission in 1989 and retired in 2009, when he joined Shell Oil Company for ten years.

in 2010 President Goodluck Jonathan appointed him as the SURE-P Project Coordinator where he served between 2010 and 2013.

He also served Governor Rabiu Kwankwaso of Kano as Senior Special Assistant on Project planning and monitoring between 2013 and 2015. Muazu contested the governorship in 2014 and stepped down before the primary election.

Muazu was appointed Commissioner of Works by Governor Abdullahi Ganduje in 2019 but was relieved of the appointment in April 2020 when he mocked the death of Chief of Staff to President Muhammad Buhari, Abba Kyari, who died of the COVID-19 infection.

Muazu also tested Positive to COVID-19 and was in isolation centres before he was eventually discharged after testing negative.

Governor Ganduje later re-appointed him as a Chairman of NNPC-AKK Pipeline Project Delivery and the Kano State Industrialization Committee.
