She said the essence of the meeting was to reach out to every group to ensure that everyone was carried along in governance.
“Those at the local government level will also be carried along,” she said.
Bago said the move was aimed at promoting inclusivity and unity among the people of the state.
She added that the food items was part of her efforts to support vulnerable groups and promote the well-being of citizens.
Malam Mohammed Safiyanu, Branch C Chairman of Amalgamated Commercial Motorcycle Riders Owners Repairs Association of Nigeria (ACOMORA), lauded the gesture of the governor’s wife.
He said the food items would go a long way in assisting members of the association and prayed for God’s guidance for the Bago-led administration.
