suspension of one of the most Elder statesmen, in person Alhaji Bello Kirfi<\/a>, the Wazirin Bauchi. We are worried because the suspension of highly respected traditional title holders in Bauchi Emirate is becoming a recurring incident\u201d, he said.<\/p>\nHe added that the Jakadan Bauchi was suspended in a politically motivated circumstance as well as the Wakilin Birni whom he said was also suspended in what majority of the citizenry viewed as politically motivated. He wondered why the Wazirin Bauchi who only spoke about the state of the nation as well as the state of the state affairs in Bauchi state was removed.<\/p>\n
\u201cOur perception is that as a Nigerian, he is entitled to his own opinion, it\u2019s his personal opinion and I think a government that is claiming to be a democratic government should as well respect the divergent opinion of the citizenry.\u201d<\/p>\n
Mohammed, who is also the spokesperson of the APC governorship candidate, Ambassador Sadique Baba Abubakar, called on all the right thinking Bauchi State indigenes to resist the intimidation of the traditional institutions in the state.<\/p>\n
He said the institution cannot be subjected to manipulation by the government of the day to achieve or to score a political goal.<\/p>\n
\u201cSo it is not a good development and we are condemning it in totality and we are ready and willing to ensure that people are given their constitutional rights to voice their opinion on any issue that is within the confine of the law.\u201d<\/p>\n
Mohammed said the reason given for the removal of the Wazirin Bauchi was sketchy, pointing out that it doesn\u2019t tally with the reality on ground.<\/p>\n
\u201cThat\u2019s why we said at the onset, it is just because he called the leaders of thought across the 20 local governments and he has spoken about his position on the presidency as well as that the situation in Bauchi required a rescuer, requires somebody who is going accommodate all the interests and the intricacies of governance in the state.<\/p>\n
\u201cSo, by and large, our understanding directly, based on his body posture, he has given a vote of no confidence on the government that he has worked assiduously to form, and that is why we said this thing is becoming a recurring incident and it is not good for the government and it will not augur well for the traditional institution who are ordinarily based on the provision of the constitution they are not partisan, so we are call on all the right thinking people of Bauchi state to ensure that our highly respected traditional institution is not allowed to be used for political motive.<\/p>\n
\u201cWe as a party, we respect the traditional institution and we know that they have their own limitations and this is not the first time this kind of thing is happening under this administration.<\/p>\n
\u201cWhy now, when the Waziri of Bauchi called a meeting, expressed his opinion on national and state issues and that is what we felt triggered this action, so the reason given is just a cover up.<\/p>\n
\u201cWe respect the traditional institution but look at it, it said \u2018on the instructions of the Honourable Commissioner ministry of Local government and chieftaincy affairs, so that is what brought the iota of political undertone on the issue.\u201d<\/p>\n
Mohammed appealed to the Bauchi State government to respect the divergent opinion of the citizenry, irrespective of the party affiliation.<\/p>\n
\u201cOur thinking, as somebody who claimed to be a democrat, should as well listen to the constructive criticisms with a view to at least correct the problem raised by some of these Elder statesmen in the state.<\/p>\n
\u201cFrom the information we received, there are a lot of dissatisfaction on the way and manner in which the administration of the state is been run and that is why they decided to say that they will talk about the state of the state affairs in a later date and that\u2019s why this decision we felt is a precondition to scuttle that meeting that is intended to actually for the Elder statesman to categorically and unequivocally to state their position on the state of affairs and so we are saying that, this government as a democratic one should learn to adapt to the tenets of democracy and one of the important tenets of democracy which is lacking under this administration is for the government to accommodate the divergent views on issues that are within the confine of the law.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
