Fatima Naseer, widely recognized on TikTok as Teemahcool, has secured a new position within local government in Kano State following recent public scrutiny over her actions.
She has been appointed as the officer in charge of women's affairs in Nassarawa Local Government Area.
According to Daily Trust, the appointment received approval from the council chairman, Yusuf Imam Ogan Boye, and was confirmed through a letter signed by the council secretary, Ado Mohammed Hotoro. The letter indicated that the decision was based on her contributions and dedication to the development of the area. She has been directed to perform her duties in accordance with the council's regulations.
This appointment comes just days after she faced criticism for leading a controversial display of undergarments during the visit of Nigeria's First Lady, Oluremi Tinubu, to Kano.
The incident attracted widespread condemnation from various quarters within and outside the state. The Kano State Government also distanced itself from the event, stating that it does not reflect the cultural or religious values of the people.
Teemahcool subsequently issued a public apology, pledging not to repeat such behavior. She gained popularity during the election period as a supporter of the council chairman and remained actively involved in his campaign leading up to his victory.
