The Governor in addition to the 500 housing units in Auno also inspected construction of hostels at the Borno State University and progress works going on at Moramti mega secondary School.
Zulum returned to Maiduguri on Friday after attending a meeting with President Buhari at the state house, met ministers of Agriculture, Finance, Humanitarian Affairs and the DG Refugees Commission.
The Governor had in all his engagements in the Federal capital city of Abuja raised matters that are of developmental interest to Borno state.
