His community approach to security has yielded positive results, with a significant reduction in crime and criminality in the state.
The renovation of the Minna Airport, renamed the Bola Ahmad Tinubu International Airport, is another testament to Governor Bago's commitment to infrastructure development.
The distribution of 20 operational vehicles to security agencies has enhanced their capacity to combat crime and maintain public safety.
Governor Bago's financial discipline has saved the state N10 billion in just four months, demonstrating his administration's commitment to transparency and accountability.
The enforcement of the 2022 Revenue Law, freezing the state's account to create a single dashboard for the state's finances, is a laudable move. The automation of salary and pension payments has also ensured prompt payment of workers' entitlements.
The upgrade of Radio Niger, NSTV, and the Newsline newspapers will enhance public awareness and engagement with the government's programs and policies.
