Governor Bala said he is satisfied with the good representation of Mansur Manu Soro at the House of Representatives and challenged other political office holders to replicate similar projects in their various constituencies for the advancement of the state.
The Governor while expressing concern on the enrollment drive in the state, called on traditional rulers to support his administration in an effort to ensure improvement in the education system.
Earlier, the Federal Lawmaker, Honorable Mansur Manu Soro commended Governor Bala for executing developmental projects across the state.

Soro named one of the health facilities after the wife of the Governor, the First Lady, Dr. Aisha Bala Mohammed in honour of her contribution to the development of the state.
Other interventions include the distribution of 441 cell phones to women volunteers who would soon be trained in healthcare delivery in his constituency, six ambulances, newly constructed gifted schools and a special school for IDPs, Orphans and Almajiris.
