This is not the right time for eye service

Fasindo:















Kaura is breaking barriers.


But I think he should focus more on provision of clean pipe borne water for Bauchi people.
The major problem of Bauchi people is not road but water, quality nd sound education with good school buildings nd then job opportunities I wish he focus on these three nd also revamp Yankari Game Reserve in Alkaleri so as to attract more tourist to Bauchi.

Bauchi is one place I would love to stay.
