“But just three days ago I heard that the Bauchi State Governor has come to flag off the construction of that road (Rimi Zayam) but I still have it in my 2024 projects. No problem, if the state government said it wanted to do it, let them do it, we will redirect our own to another location within the same town,” he said.
