Youths in Bauchi State who attempted to raid a store where COVID-19 palliatives were kept on Sunday were disappointed after they found it empty.
When the youth laid siege on the store, the chief of staff to Governor Bala Mohammed ordered that the warehouse be opened for them.
Governor Mohammed made this known on his Twitter account handle where he wrote that: “Today, hoodlums attempted a raid on the #COVID-19 palliative warehouse in Bauchi State. My Chief of Staff was informed and he ordered the warehouse to be opened.
Today, hoodlums attempted a raid on the #COVID19 palliative warehouse in Bauchi State. My Chief of Staff was informed and he ordered the warehouse to be opened. They saw it was empty, and they turned back. And that’s because we shared everything to beneficiaries as at when due.

“They saw it was empty, and they turned back. And that’s because we shared everything to beneficiaries as at when due.
For accountability, when we started distribution months ago, I ensured to set up a high powered committee that included myself, my deputy, the State @OfficialPDPNig Chairman and Chairmen of all political parties in the state, including traditional rulers, and others.”
Bala Mohammed added that: “The core of my mandate remains the crucial drive to give Bauchi State citizens a better prospect and more excellent opportunity for a prosperous life. We are doing this, and we will continue to do more. #GreaterBauchi.”
