He said, “I understand some councilors don’t have private vehicles. Therefore, these buses will assist them in discharging their legislative functions in the constituencies or even in the state when the need arises.”
Governor Idris, however, urged the councilors to ensure proper use and maintenance of the buses.
Receiving the keys of the vehicles on behalf of the 21 local government councilors, the chairman of Birnin Kebbi local government, Alhaji Muhammed Dahiru Ambursa, assured the governor that the buses would be used for the purpose they were given.
