A youth leader, Abdullahi Isah, has been stripped of his traditional title as the Wakilin Matasa Bosso by Muazu Adamu-Laka, the district head of Bosso Local Government Area of Niger State, for throwing his weight behind the planned nationwide hunger protest.
It was gathered that the youth leader openly supported the protest, which is scheduled to commence on August 1, 2024.
The district is part of the Minna Emirate Council.
In a letter of dismissal addressed to Isah and dated July 28, the monarch known as Hakimi Bosso, asked him to henceforth stop parading himself as the youth leader of Bosso.
“I hereby write to inform you that you have been dismissed from your title as Youth Leader of Bosso (Wakilin Matasan Bosso) with immediate effect from July 28, 2024," the letter reads.
“You should no longer call yourself as Youth Leader of Bosso. I hope you will make use of this information given to you."
The district head said the community will not condone any act that will destroy the peace and stability of the state.
