He added, “This is vandalism, they are vandalizing and uprooting every structure available in the state, this is not good for a government that was given good eight years but has now resorted to these unpatriotic actions”.
Bichi said after serving for eight years why is Ganduje vandalizing the structures of the state why is he selling everything to himself and his cronies, “we are aware that this place is sold to his son at less than N10 million and the boy had since sold the place at N300 million”.
He warned that anybody who engaged in buying these properties would have himself to blame.
“We are not only going to recover anywhere that has been sold as public places but we will surely prosecute anybody who bought them”.
