KANO – The sacked Kano state Commissioner of Works and Infrastructural developments, Alhaji Muazu Magaji has been discharged from Isolation Centre after testing negative to the highly contagious Coronavirus disease.

The former Commissioner confirmed this in a post on his Facebook timeline on Friday.

Magaji posted that, “To the Glory of Allah SWT, today Friday 22nd May and 29th Ramadan I have been confirmed Covid-19 Negative and discharged from Isolation center.”

Recall that the former Commissioner was relieved of his appointment by his principal, Governor Abdullahi Umar Ganduje for allegedly celebrating the death of late Abba Kyari, the former Chief of Staff to President Muhammadu Buhari, although he (sacked commissioner) claimed he was misunderstood by the post.
