A member of the Houseof Representatives, representing Misau/Dambam federal constituency of Bauchi State, Alhaji Abubakar Ahmed, has donated 1,800 bags of assorted fertiliser and other farmimputs to his constituents, just as hecharged his people to maintain the peace.
Donating the fertiliser and the imputs in Misau and Dambam, on Monday, Ahmed said it was his contribution to boosting food production in the area this season.
He assured that he would continue to makehis contribution to the development of the area in particular and the state in general.
“My constituents are mostly farmers who need a lot of encouragement by way of farm inputs, as they do not have any other trade but farming, which has become part of their lives.
“As a lawmaker and representative of the people, I always carry the interest of my people at heart and that is why my doors are always opened to all, irrespective of political affiliation, ethnic, religion or social background, particularly political difference.
“But politics should be practised for development,” he said.
While admonishing his people to maintain the peace, he said “without peace, there can be no farming; there can be no development in any way or form and you asMuslims should keep to the teachings of the Holy Qur’an and Hadith.
“I also enjoin you to live in harmony with those that are not Muslims, bearing in mind that we are all created by Allah (SWT) and on the last day, we shall stand before him for judgment.”
