 Gov. Bala Mohammed of Bauchi has assured that elected Local Government Area (LGA) chairmen in the state would be given complete autonomy to carry out their official responsibilities without hinderance.

The governor made the pledge on Sunday in Bauchi  during the swearing- in ceremony of all the recently elected  chairmen of the 20 LGAs  of the state.

Mohammed said the election of leadership at the grassroots was a proof that he would live up,to his promise, adding that “this is what democracy is all about”.

He stressed that his administration was not imposing anybody on the people, rather, it allowed democracy to thrive.

“What the people of Bauchi want is work, service, infrastructure, and I assure you we are going to give you the autonomy and the  little resources that you need.

“I do not  want anybody to ‘micro manage you’; I do not want anybody to come and tell you that he has made you; I did not make you.

“We are not just impossing people on the people, we allowed democracy to take its natural course,” Mohammed told the elected chairmen.

The governor called on all them to have respect for all traditional institutions, and work with the State Government for the progress of the state.

Earlier, while speaking on behalf of all the 20 elected chairmen, Mr Yusuf Garba, from Alkaleri Council, thanked  the  people of the state  for reposing  confidence in them.

“On behalf of the 20 local government chairmen elected, I stand here to say thank you to the entire people of Bauchi state who repose their confidence in us.

“We are assuring them that we will deliver because we are going to take examples from the state governor in the way he govern the state,” he said.
