Bauchi Is MarginalizId In Federal Employment And Appointments, Says Gov Mohammed.

He urged the Federal Character Commission (FCC) to address this imbalance and ensure that Bauchi is adequately included in staffing for key federal ministries, departments, and agencies.

The governor made his appeal during a visit by an FCC delegation led by Executive Chairperson Dr. Muhibbah Dan Kaka at the Government House in Bauchi on Wednesday.

He emphasized the need for equitable federal appointments in accordance with Nigeria’s 1999 Constitution, stressing the importance of justice and fair representation for Bauchi at the federal level. Mohammed noted that Bauchi State has qualified and capable individuals who could contribute to national development if given fair opportunities.

“Ensuring fair representation in federal appointments will not only enhance national unity but also promote a sense of belonging for all Nigerians,” he remarked.

In response, FCC Executive Chairperson Dr. Muhibbah Dan Kaka reaffirmed the Commission’s commitment to equitable distribution of positions nationwide. She assured the governor that Bauchi’s concerns would be considered as the FCC continues to work toward unity and fair representation in public offices.
