Zamfara's Commissioner for Budget and Planning takes charge of the movement's North-West zonal secretariat, anchoring regional coordination from Gusau.
The City Boy Movement has appointed Hon. Abdulmalik Abubakar Gajam, Zamfara State Commissioner for Budget and Planning, as Zonal Secretary for the North-West region — placing the zonal secretariat firmly within Zamfara.
The appointment gives the state a central role in coordinating youth mobilization across the North-West, and the movement has said it intends to draw on his background in technology and economic policy to design structural empowerment programmes for the state.
The Zamfara chapter described the appointment as recognition of the discipline of its ward structures and a platform to attract federal empowerment and employment allocations to Zamfara youth.
