SPEECH BY SEN. AISHATU DAHIRU AHMED BINANI AT THE COMMISSIONING OF COLD ROOM IN YOLA ABATTOIR ON 5th FEBRUARY, 2023
Good Afternoon,
Without much ado, it is my pleasure to welcome you all to this ceremony, which you honored despite the very short notice.
Let me welcome the Chairman of the occasion who is also the APC Adamawa State Ag. Chairman together with his state executive committee, Yola North, Yola South Local Government APC executives. Director General National Directorate of Employment, Mal. Abubakar Nuhu Fikpo and his top management.
I also welcome our very important guests, youths, women, our artists and gentlemen of the press.
I am glad at the opportunity to fulfill the promise made to our butchers by providing them this “cold room,” which enables them to preserve unsold beef of the day. This will greatly reduce losses due to lack of where to preserve leftover beef of the day. It will also go a long way in enhancing their trade and business.
The cold room is part of my 2022 constituency project provided in the last budget year and executed through the office of the Director General NDE. We are grateful sir for this wonderful collaboration.
Lastly, let me take this opportunity to advise the beneficiaries to kindly take care of the “cold room” through regular cleaning and protect it from vandalization. This would enable you to enjoy the services for a very long time.
I wish everyone a safe trip back to their destination.
Sen. Aishatu Dahiru Ahmed (Binani), APC Governorship Candidate,
