The governor noted that the distribution of the cars was an allocation and not a donation, adding that it was geared towards ensuring they worked effectively and efficiently and reducing the cost of transportation.
Yahaya said, “This is not a donation because it’s not for free. I want to seize this opportunity to allocate and issue these vehicles to our commissioners in order for them to use them; because of the prestige of the office, they need to go with the full complement of the office.
“It’s a tradition we have already done that to House of Assembly members so that they can participate in governance and carry out their oversight functions without any hitch.”
