Alleged Adultery: This Trial Has Reminded Me That No One Is Above Being Tested By Allah - Reinstated Jigawa Commissioner

Auwal Danladi Sankara, the Jigawa State Commissioner for Special Duties who was accused of alleged adultery has spoken up after he was cleared of the allegations.

He said that  his trials reminded him that no one is above being tested by Allah SWT, and has instilled in him a deeper sense of humility and dedication to his role as a public servant.

Sankara stated this in a statement issued to DAILY POST while reacting to the allegations labelled against him.

It was reported that the Jigawa State commissioner for special duties, Auwalu Danladi Sankara was accused of having an affair with a married woman in an uncompleted building.

The situation sparked contention which resulted in his suspension by the JIgawa State Governor, Malam Umar Namadi pending the outcome of the investigation by the AIG zone 1 and the Shari’a court’s judgement.

The Kano State Upper Sharia Court however acquitted and discharged him based on the police report as the complainant failed to provide sufficient evidence to prove the allegation and therefore struck out the case.

Governor Namadi recalled the suspended commissioner following the court judgement.

According to the statement, “I would like to express my heartfelt gratitude to His Excellency, Governor Umar A. Namadi, for reinstating me to my position as the Commissioner of Special Duties of Jigawa State. I am truly thankful for your unwavering support and confidence during this challenging period.

“I also extend my sincere appreciation to my family, friends, and well-wishers who stood by me, offered their love, and prayed for my vindication. Your support has been invaluable, and I am deeply grateful for your belief in my integrity.

“I thank Allah SWT for granting me justice and clearing my name. This trial has reminded me that no one is above being tested by Allah SWT, and it has instilled in me a deeper sense of humility and dedication to my role as a public servant.

“I am committed to serving my community with renewed vigor and mindfulness, ensuring that I remain cautious in my duties moving forward.”
