Kano Suspends Thomas Water Scheme Manager Over Alleged Sabotage

The Kano State Government has ordered the immediate suspension of the Manager of the Thomas Regional Water Scheme. The move follows allegations of vandalism and sabotage that have stalled efforts to end persistent water shortages. Project inspections revealed that a recently completed power installation at Thomas had been looted, with wiring stripped from generators and pumps. Security guards hired to protect the plant were found farming on the premises instead of safeguarding public assets. The Commissioner of Water Resources has launched a full investigation and warned that criminal charges will follow if culpability is proven. The state is already rehabilitating other waterworks and urges communities to protect these critical facilities.
