Bauchi State chapter of the Peoples Redemption Party (PRP) has expressed shock and outrage at what it described as the latest act of extravagance by the state governor, Sen Bala Mohammed. The PRP in a statement by its state Secretary, Abdulazeez Haruna, observed that the governor had deemed it fit to lavishly spend state funds on exotic multimillion-naira SUVs for the six first-class Emirs in the state, while the majority of residents struggle to survive in poverty and hunger . According to PRP, “This is an egregious display of callousness and disregard for the welfare of the people who elected him into office.
At a time when many residents of Bauchi State are struggling to put food on their tables, the governor has chosen to prioritise luxury and indulgence for the privileged few.” The party added that,”The people of Bauchi State are crying out for relief from the economic hardship and hunger that have become the norm in the state, but instead, they are being met with lavish displays of wealth and power.” “We condemn this flagrant waste of public funds and call on Governor Bala Mohammed to account for his actions.
The people of Bauchi State deserve better than to be governed by someone who prioritises the pampering of a few at the expense of the many,” It stressed.
