Speaking after signing of the new Bill, Governor Mohammed expressed appreciation to the State House of Assembly members for their continued support, emphasizing his administration’s commitment to upholding the rule of law.
He assured the public of efforts to address financial leakages within the government, emphasizing that any officials found culpable of misconduct, especially those involved in recent financial irregularities, would be held accountable.
