Gideon Bawa added that “We have seen the housing units that the governor is building in all the six Emirates of the state to cut down housing deficit that has existed before, including Dass, we have seen the water project, this effort made us realize that the governor means well for Bauchi State and its people.”

The former Secretary of Dass local government council further said that the objective of the Forum is to mobilize and enlighten people on the activities of Governor Bala Mohammed of Bauchi State in view of his laudable projects within two years and gather support for him ahead of the 2023 governorship election so that he can continue with the good job he has started.
