The meeting took place on 27 November 2025 at the Council Hall and was chaired by the Deputy Chairman Musa Idris Kanu.
During the session, councilors reviewed critical issues affecting the district’s governance and service delivery. One major highlight was the presentation and handing over of the 2026 draft budget by the Finance Officer to the Executive Branch for approval.
Key matters raised during the deliberations included:
The absence of some ex-officio members, though the Council confirmed they had already been communicated to.
A proposal to increase councilors’ transport allowances as part of the 2026 budget considerations.
