The Niger State Governor, Mohammed Bago, on Monday, revealed plans by his administration to demolish a police station in the Chanchaga area of Minna, the state capital.
Speaking during his inaugural speech at the trade fair complex in Minna, the newly inaugurated governor said that the first assignment he is handing out is to mark the police station for demolition which would be carried out on a yet-to-be-determined date.
He lamented that the police station was obstructing the water pipeline and stated that it would be marked for demolition immediately.
Priority will be given to the provision of portable drinking water. As we leave this venue, we have a police station sitting on our (water pipeline), we will mark it for demolition. We will provide portable drinking water for all our citizens, it is a must,” he stated.
“We will make all necessary arrangements to have a constant supply of electricity in Niger State. We will not be warehousing four hydropower dams and will not have electricity. It is over, we must have power.”
