He also said that the mosque needed the government’s assistance in the provision of regular water supply.

AbdulGafar who thanked the state governor, AbdulRahaman AbdulRazaq and other eminent personalities for their support so far for the mosque, appealed to them to do more as the routine maintenance of the mosque gulps millions of naira.
