“The vehicle that brought me to this place was purchased some 16 years, during Goje era; that is the only functional vehicle of a governor. Because of greed, avarice and lack of service to humanity some people decided to auction functional vehicles in government.
“The governor’s vehicle that is worth N300m was taken away for N11m. I’m happy to say some have returned the vehicles. I will ensure that whatever is taken out illegally is returned to Gombe State. “ he said.
