<p>The executive chairman of Kano state Sports Commission Ibrahim Galadim has quit office, the impeccable source revealed.</p>
<p>Our check reveals that Kano sports have been breathing under the cold war from fragmented stakeholders and interest appointed into diverse sports offices created by the state government.</p><div class="uMUT4Ihy" style="clear:both;float:left;width:100%;margin:0 0 20px 0;"><script async src="https://pagead2.googlesyndication.com/pagead/js/adsbygoogle.js"></script>

<p>The source could not divulge the reasons cited by Galadima prompting his resignation, a letter has been sent to Kano state governor Abdullahi Umar Ganduje notifying the governor of his decision to exit.</p>
<p>Our source said “Galadima has endured a long time of frustrations with the attitude of the state government toward his office.</p>

<p>“since he took charge at the Kano state Sports Commission, the commission is underfunded, funds, even when approved, are not released in earnest for sports programmes, in some cases, the commission has to go borrowing, the last team that went for a national volleyball competition in Ilorin late last year, , Galadima had to dole out monies from his private pocket to support the team.</p>
<p> ;</p>
<p>“Kano Pillars handball team that travelled to represent the state in Abuja at last year Prudent Energy League had to travel on the stipend of N50,000,00 from this money which they paid hotels and feeding bills and allowances of the players, coaches and backroom staff.</p>
<p>The source further said, “there are backlogs of approvals for sports activities that were not released dating back to three years back, Galadima had to run the commission on overhead cost of one million Naira, from this amount casual coaches and athletes are been paid their monthly entitlement and other sundry expenses, the man became frustrated.”</p>

<p>An independent source blamed the state government for the unending crisis in the sports industry in the state “how can we have a sports commission with Executive chairman in Ibrahim Galadima, we also have a ministry of youths and sports under a full commissioner of youths and sports, we now have a now SA on sports and we also have SSA on sports, you also have chairman Kano Pillars and other serious stakeholders and sports guru’s like the deputy governor, the situation did become rowdy, all along it is war, Galadima an elder statesman is now openly been subjected to ridicule from some quarters, he had to throw in the towel.”</p>

<p>Our investigations revealed that Ibrahim Galadima, prior to January 1<sup>st</sup> 2021 has seized from going to his official office located at Sani Marshal road, the veteran sports administrator had also refrained from been chauffeured in his official car.</p>
<p>Our correspondent who visited the sports commission on <a href="https://carsonnow.org/story/06/18/2020/vehicle-accident-reported-southbound-i-580-and-fairview-thursday-afternoon">Thursday afternoon reports that the official car</a> attached to Galadima could not be sighted at the usually designated parking space within the premises of the commission, a source said “the official car assigned to Galadima has been returned to the cabinet office.</p>
<p>“Our reporter gathered from a close ally of the former NFA honcho that “Ibrahim Galadima for long has nursed the intention to resign from the commission, but he was been pressurized not to resign by some of us, who were close to him, don&#8217;t forget the relationship between him and Ganduje, they both served as commissioners in the military administration, they have a long history together, we have been prevailing on him to shut the idea, but at this time I think he is totally fed up, those who claim to be politicians among those appointed into sports offices by the government have not helped matters at all, governor Ganduje should revisit the sector and make amendments..”</p>
<p>Further checks reveal that there is no harmony between the holders of the sports offices created by the state government, owing to the absence of scheduled duties between KSSC, ministry of youths and sports, SA Sports and SSA sports have given birth to duplication of duties, same sectional interest has breed intrigues, sabotage, and pettiness in the sector.</p>
<p>When contacted, the public relations officer, Kano state Sports Commission, KSSC, Abbati Sabo declined comments on the matter, he said “I can not confirm to you, since I am not in the possession of any official document confirming his resignation, or all that you have just asked me about Baba Galadima.</p>
<p>More details soon.</p>
