Zamfara State Government has warned political or public office holders to desist from posting appointment letters on social media or have themselves to blame.
In a statement, the Permanent Secretary, Ministry of information, Barrister Sani Nassarawa said, the state Government has noticed with dismay, the habit of posting and sharing government appointment letters on social media platforms by some political appointees.
