The controversy over the appointment of Dr. Maryam Ismaila Keshinro, as federal permanent secretary representing Zamfara state has been laid to rest.
This is sequel to solidarity and support of the state governor, Dauda Lawal to the appointee on Sunday.
Recall, that SINL Nigeria Online reported that reactions trailed the appointment of Keshinro, barely twenty fours after the presidency announced her appointment.
