A former Speaker of the House of Representatives, Hon Yakubu Dogara, has appealed to President Bola Tinubu to revisit the issue of oil exploration discovered in Bauchi State as well as commence the construction of the Bagel Dam in Dass LGA, saying such interventions would drive economic growth, create jobs, and improve infrastructure.
Dogara, who stated this, weekend, while speaking at the commissioning of a road project in Toro Local Government Area of Bauchi State courtesy of the efforts of the Senator representing Bauchi South Senatorial District, Shehu Buba, noted that the projects when executed would encourage the people to support Tinubu in the 2027 presidential election.
The former Speaker called for the construction of the Bagel dam in Dass LGA of the state, pointing out that it wouldopen up the area, create sources of employment for the population and increase revenue generation opportunities.
“If President Bola Ahmed Tinubu awards and commences the Bagel Dam and revisit the oil exploration in Bauchi State, he does not need to come for campaigns in Bauchi State for the 2027 presidential campaign as we will all vote for him,” he said
