He expressed concerns that the police station was obstructing the water pipeline.
“Priority will be given to potable drinking water, as we leave this venue, we have a police station sitting on our water pipeline, we will mark it for demolition because we must provide portable drinking water for our people”, he said.
Bago assured the people that his administration will tackle insecurity in the state with the intensity and urgency it deserves.
“Security is a serious matter and we will tackle it with the intensity and urgency it deserves as enshrined in our constitution therefore we shall boldly defend that constitutional tenet and ensure that security will be given a premium in our administration”, he said.
