The Kano State Government said it has no intention to revoke the land title of the oldest northern Nigeria Kano Golf Club.
Malam Muhammad Garba, the state Commissioner for Information and Internal Affairs, said this in a statement in Kano.
Garba dismissed the speculation as a mere misrepresentation of facts to settle political scores.
He explained that the state Bureau for Land Administration only wrote to the management of the Golf Club reminding them that the term of the title of the land had expired on April 6, 2019.
According to him, no mention of revocation was made in the content of the letter sent to the owners of the golf club, but the land title renewal and its ground rent.
However, he noted that an online publication owned by an element of the opposition in the state twisted the information to discredit the ruling party in the state.
The commissioner, therefore, assured that the status of the club remains, and called on the public to disregard the deliberate misinformation and be wary of agents of destabilisation bent on creating confusion in the state.
