THE lawmaker representing Bauchi Central Federal Constituency of Bauchi State, Yakubu Abdullahi, says his building has been demolished by the state government.
The house, which was located a few meters away from the official residence of the Speaker of Bauchi State House of Assembly, Abubakar Suleiman, in the old GRA, was demolished Friday night.
Abdullahi yesterday said that his house was destroyed by Governor Bala Mohammed for “political reasons.”
He further alleged that the governor went there and ordered that the house, which was about 75 percent completed, be demolished.
“We’ve been dragging this for about two weeks. Finally, on Thursday, he sent them in the night and they came with guns and shot four of my security men there. We reported the matter to the Police and they were taken to the hospital where the bullets were removed.
“On Friday, the same group went to the house around 6pm. They came with a bulldozer from the Bauchi State Environmental Protection Agency; the governor went there himself and ordered them to demolish the house,” Abdullahi stated.
