Governor of Sokoto State, Aminu Tambuwal has enjoined new local council chairmen not to move from one hotel to another unnecessarily.
He said this on Wednesday when he administered the oath of office on elected 23 chairmen in the state.
The governor who said the chairmen should remain in their councils to serve the people also encouraged them to hit ground running, saying that the third tier of government must be allowed to function effectively in order to advance the purpose of its creation.
“You must not be found junketing from one hotel or location to another. Except for very obvious reason, you have to be in your respective councils to serve the people especially those in the most security troubled zone.
“We shall be receiving minutes and reports on all security meetings from your respective councils to enable the state Security Council meeting take proactive measures and emergency steps towards addressing the menace,” he said..
