Bello Matawalle, the Governor of Zamfara State, has ordered
the immediate suspension of a number of district and village heads in Maradun
emirate.
Some Fulanis were killed on Thursday in the domains of the
affected leaders.
Matawalle issued the order during a security meeting with
traditional rulers, security agents, religious leaders and journalists at the
Government House.
“It is sad to note that during this meeting, we have
received two different security breach reports from two different areas. The
emir of Maradun is hereby directed to leave this meeting.”
The governor directed him to “suspend the traditional rulers
in which these acts took place and initiate ways to identify and bring the
perpetrators of the act of the authorities within the next three days or face
the consequence himself.”
Matawalle warned that any traditional ruler in whose area
the outlawed ‘Yan sa kai (volunteer security members) take the law into their
hands would be removed and probed.
