Bwari boss to improve infrastructure

The Chairman of Bwari Area council, FCT, Mr Musa Dikko, has toured the 10 wards in the council promising to improve infrastructure.

Dikko, who led the council’s executive on the tour, made the promise when they visited Ushafa.

The wards visited were: Igu, Kawu, Usuma, Kuduru, Dutse, Ushafa, Bwari central, Kubwa, Byazin and Shere.

He said the aim of the visit to the communities was to render account of his stewardship in the past one year and to get feedback towards moving the communities forward.

He promised to focus more on the construction of roads and modern markets, building of mosques and overhaul of all health centres in the area.

Dikko also said the failure by past administrations of the area council to integrate and empower the traditional institution was part of the causes of lack of visible development in the communities.

Dikko, therefore, promised to review upwards, the monthly stipends of N10,000 paid to traditional rulers to N20,000 with the aim of encouraging them to key into the council’s development efforts. (NAN)
