Governor Mohammed’s vision remains steadfast: to deliver policies and programs that uplift the people and create opportunities for growth and prosperity.
Among the newly appointed Special Advisers are individuals with deep roots in their respective fields. For instance, Hon.

Jidauna Tula from Bogoro LGA has been entrusted with Legal Matters, while Hon. Adamu Bello from Giade LGA will oversee Commerce and Industries, supporting local businesses and fostering trade.
The appointments also touch on areas critical to societal transformation. Hon.

Yakub Ibrahim Hamza from Darazo LGA takes the helm as Special Adviser on Higher Education, ensuring that the future generation has access to quality learning opportunities.
Other notable appointments include Alh. Danladi Mohammed Danbaba from Bauchi LGA, who will handle Humanitarian Affairs, Hon. Sani Mohammed Burra from Ningi LGA, tasked with bridging the gap between State and National Assemblies, and Hon. Shitu Zaki from Zaki LGA, who takes on Political Matters.
These new appointments are not just about titles; they represent a vision for progress. With a total of eleven Special Advisers now on board, the Governor aims to build a team that reflects the aspirations of every community in Bauchi State. Their collective expertise and dedication will be instrumental in driving forward the administration's developmental agenda.
The swearing-in ceremony for the eight new Special Advisers is set to take place on Tuesday, 28th January 2025, at 12:00 noon in the Council Chamber, Government House, Bauchi. It will be a moment of significance—not just for the appointees but for the people of Bauchi State, as it symbolizes the Governor’s commitment to inclusivity and excellence in governance.
Governor Bala Mohammed, fondly referred to as Kauran Daular Usmaniyya, congratulated the appointees and encouraged them to lead with integrity, dedication, and a deep sense of service. “This is a call to action,” he emphasized. “The people of Bauchi State are looking to you to help shape a better future, and I have no doubt that each of you will rise to the occasion.”
