    Bauchi Addresses Concerns Over Container Removals

    The Bauchi State Government has addressed concerns regarding the ongoing demolition of illegal containers and structures.

    The government stated that the actions are part of efforts to enforce urban planning regulations and ensure public safety.

    The Nation reports that the demolition of the shops had generated reactions from business and shop owners who berated the administration of Governor Bala Mohammed for taking away their means of livelihood.

    However, during a media chat at the council chambers of the Government House yesterday, the Commissioner for Housing and Environment, Danlami Kawule, while addressing residents, explained that the demolitions aimed to restore and maintain the state’s master plan, which had been compromised by the previous administration.

    Kawule noted that many of the illegal containers were placed in high-traffic areas, causing accidents and occupying green spaces intended for public safety and beautification.

    “The decision to undertake these projects is not about destroying businesses or displacing people. It’s about creating a conducive environment where traders can operate without hindrance.”

    Also speaking, Commissioner for Land and Survey, Maryam Katagum, said there are relocation plans for those affected.

    She listed the affected areas to include Adamu Jumba, Bauchi Club, GRA, Wunti Market, Murtala Mohammed Way, and Ahmadu Bello Way, assuring that the government has designated new land to relocate the traders, particularly along major roads connecting to other states, aiming to create business clusters.

    Katagum also dispelled rumours that Governor Bala Mohammed intended to drive people out of the state.

    The Commissioner for Internal Security and Domestic Affairs, Barr Abdulhamid Bununu also highlighted the security benefits of the demolitions, saying it had become a haven for criminals, drug dealers and kidnappers.
