Adamawa Assembly sacks Madagali district head
The Adamawa State House of Assembly has asked that the District Head of Madagali, Alhaji Bakura Yerima Iya, be removed from office.
It, therefore, directed the supervising Mubi Emirate Council, which advised his appointment in the first place, to reverse the appointment. The Committee had earlier told the Assembly that letters from the District Head of Madagali dated 21st September, 2019, and from the Mubi Emirate Council dated 23rd September 2019 confirmed that there was an election to fill the vacant traditional district office.
Acting on the Committee report at plenary on Wednesday, members of the Adamawa State House of Assembly insisted that the result of the election was the will of the majority and should be respected and the appointment of Bakura Iya reversed.
