The Bauchi State Government, through the Local Government Service Commission, has taken a decisive step in sacking six traditional rulers from Bauchi and Katagum Emirate Councils.
The sack comes as a result of their involvement in partisan politics and other forms of misconduct.

The affected traditional rulers from the Katagum Emirate Councils are Alhaji Aminu Muhammad Malami, District Head of Udubo; Alhaji Bashir Kabir Umar, District Head of Azare; Umar Omar, Village Head of Gadiya; and Umar Bani, Village Head of Tarmasawa.
