Nigeria’s Foreign Affairs Minister Accuses Bauchi Governor of Mismanaging Resouces

Nigeria’s Minister of Foreign Affairs, Ambassador Yusuf Tuggar, has accused the Governor of Bauchi State, Senator Bala Muhammad , of poor management of the state’s resources


In a virtual interview with journalist Nura Ahmad  from Abu Dhabi, Yusuf Tuggar, launches a scathing criticism against the Governor of Bauchi State, Senator Bala Mohammed, Tuggar accuses the governor of mismanaging the state’s resources and failing to deliver meaningful development since assuming office.


Ambassador Tuggar highlighted that in October last year, Bauchi State received over eight billion naira in federal allocation, nearly double its previous allocations. However, he claimed there was little to show for it in terms of development across critical sectors such as healthcare, education, and infrastructure.


The minister further accused the governor of mismanaging land in Bauchi State in a manner reminiscent of his tenure as Minister of the Federal Capital Territory (FCT), Abuja. “You are not that clean to be part of public affairs,” Tuggar remarked pointedly during the interview.


Tuggar also addressed Senator Bala Mohammed's rumored ambition to contest for the presidency, asserting that such aspirations are ill-suited for someone he described as a failed leader. "The position of president is not for people like him," he added.


The Foreign Affairs Minister emphasized the need for transformation in Bauchi State, calling for better governance to address the pressing challenges in agriculture, education, and healthcare delivery.


Ambassador Tuggar also accused the Bauchi State Government of unlawfully seizing farmlands from their rightful owners in the name of lie, subjecting them to harsh conditions. 


He further alleged that some government officials had been diverting commercial agricultural loans for their personal benefit, leaving the people of the state to bear the consequences.


These additional allegations add to the growing concerns over governance and resource management in Bauchi State under Governor Bala Mohammed.
