Senator’s Traditional Title Removed by Emirate For Alleged Offense Against Governor Mohammed

The Bauchi Emirate Council has stripped Senator Shehu Buba Umar, who represents Bauchi South in the National Assembly, of his traditional title. This action comes in response to allegations that Senator Umar insulted and criticized Bauchi State Governor Bala Mohammed….. CONTINUE READING

The dispute began when Senator Umar, a member of the All Progressives Congress (APC), accused Governor Mohammed, a member of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), of misappropriating palliative items intended to alleviate economic hardship in the state.

In reaction to these allegations, the Bauchi Emirate Council held a meeting to review the Senator’s actions. Following this meeting, the Council issued a letter dated August 14, 2024, signed by Nasiru Musa on behalf of the Emirate Council’s secretary. The letter announced the decision to revoke Senator Umar’s traditional title, “Mandarin Bauchi,” citing his conduct as a breach of the Emirate’s values and traditions.
