Senator Barau I. Jibrin Dismisses Aide Over Party Allegations
On September 28, 2026, Senator Barau I. Jibrin, the Deputy President of the Senate, terminated the appointment of Rashida Adamu, known as Rashida Mai Sa’a, as a Special Assistant.
The decision, announced by Shitu Madaki Kunchi, his media aide, is effective immediately and stems from allegations of anti-party activities that threaten Senator Barau’s political interests in Kano State. The statement indicated that investigations revealed Rashida made public statements that could incite political supporters and undermine the All Progressives Congress (APC).
Furthermore, she was accused of making disparaging remarks against Senator Barau despite having benefited from his political support. This dismissal follows a prior advisory issued on September 27, warning political appointees against internal sabotage.
It marks the second significant disengagement from Senator Barau’s team in recent weeks, following the termination of Umar Alhassan for controversial social media posts regarding Kano State Governor Abba Kabir Yusuf.
