As part of efforts to recover all
its properties, the Bauchi State government has seized a total 22 vehicles in
the possession of the wives of former governor of Bauchi State, Isa Yuguda.
The Chairman of the Transition Committee,
Senator Mohammed Mohammed who spoke yesterday at the Government House in
Bauchi said that the recovery of the vehicles was in tandem with the
mandate of the committee to recover all items confirmed to have been allocated
against due and return them to the government.
He said:” we have so far, recovered a total
of 22 cars from the wives of the former Governor, Isa Yuguda. We recovered 11
cars from his first wife, seven from the second wife and four from the third
wife. We are yet to recover the remaining cars from his fourth wife who is
currently out of the country.
“We will ensure that whoever is in
possession of government properties will be forced to return them. We urge
public servants and the general public, especially those involved in the
disposal and allocation of the property in question to cooperate with the
committee for the effective discharge of its assignment.”
Governor Mohammed Abubakar had vowed that
he would employ all measures to trace funds and property allegedly looted
during the tenure of the immediate past administration under Yuguda in the
state.
