Niger Gov’t demolishes police station located on water pipeline

The Niger State Government has demolished the Chanchaga Police Station sitting on a major water pipeline.

It was gathered that the Special Adviser on Digital Communications to the Niger State Governor, Abdullberqy U. Ebbo said the Chanchaga Police building does not have the required approval and was sitting on a major water pipeline.

Gov. Mohammed Umaru Bago, who has placed provision of potable drinking water as part of his agenda, will do everything within his power as the Governor to provide water for his people.

The police station, located opposite the Chanchaga Water Works was illegally constructed out of clear disregard for the law.

Abdulberqy said the government has also warned organizations, institutions, and individuals to seek approval from constituted relevant authorities before erecting any building as hence, the government will not hesitate to take decisive action on anyone found wanting of disregard for the law in the state.

It would be recalled that Governor Umaru Bago in his inaugural speech directed the demolition of the Chanchaga Police Station for sitting illegally on a water pipeline.”
