In his response now deleted, Bello said the ex-lawmaker should have done the same for his constituents while in office.
The governor’s statement forced the former Kaduna legislator to reel out his record in office.

Quote:“Thank you Distinguished @ShehuSani, one of our goals has always been to provide protection & conducive learning Enviroment for our School Children, although one would’ve thought your wise counsel was put to better use when you represented the people of Kaduna Central, either ways,” the governor said.
The governor’s statement forced the former Kaduna legislator to reel out his record in office.
Quote:“Within four years of my stewardship I was able to build 7 primary health care centers in Kaduna Central and 9 buildings we purchased used as schools & orphanages. Your attention and action is very much needed in Kagara; that school shouldn’t be your image.
“Your Excellency, we have a school now that carries the images of the ruins of Rome and Athens, let’s feel your impact and intervention in Kagara,” he said.
