Bauchi State Governor, Bala Mohammed, has said he will not spare his predecessor, Alhaji Muhammed Abubakar, if he finds him guilty of misappropriation funds while in office.
He said this while answering questions from journalists at the Government House shortly after his return from Abuja following his affirmation as duly elected governor by the Supreme Court.
The former FCT minister described the court cases by the All Progressives Congress and its candidate challenging his victory as “great distractions.” He promised to conduct local government elections in the state within the next six months, after 13 years of not doing so.The governor said, “We have already laid down our agenda for the state in terms of developmental plans and we have our executive council in place. Next week, we will have a retreat with all our political appointees and we want to enshrine democracy.
