Hon. Bashir Promises to Prioritise Education, Health in Gui Ward

By Ahiaba Douglas
The Councillorship Candidate of the African Democratic Congress (ADC) for Gui Ward in the Abuja Municipal Area Council (AMAC), Hon. Mustapha Micheal Bashir, has pledged to give priority attention to the education and health sectors of the ward if elected.
Hon. Bashir made this commitment while addressing journalists at a town hall meeting organized by members of the Obedient Movement in Kabusa Ward on Sunday, September 31, 2025, at the Okay Event Center, Lugbe, Federal Capital Territory (FCT).
He assured residents that his representation in the AMAC Legislative Council would be “deliberate, intentional, and conscious of the task to reposition both the education and health sectors in Gui Ward.”
Expressing deep concern over the current state of public schools in the ward, Bashir lamented the lack of basic infrastructure.
“There are many public primary schools in Gui Ward where you can hardly find up to ten desks in a class. Almost all the pupils sit on bare floors — a very sad development,” he said.
He further promised to renovate, equip, and upgrade public health facilities in the ward, noting that most of them are dilapidated and grossly understaffed. According to him, the poor state of healthcare delivery has cost lives, especially women in labour who often die while struggling to reach distant facilities.
“My representation will address these areas demanding urgent attention,” he assured.
