Former Minister Loses Traditional Title For ‘Disrespecting’ Powerful Northern Governor

Bello Kirfi, a former Minister of Special Duties, has been stripped of his traditional title of “Wazirin Bauchi” by the Bauchi Emirate Council for the second time in five years.

The new development was said to be related to the ex-alleged minister’s “disloyalty and disrespect” of State Governor Bala Mohammed.

Kirfi, a retired federal civil servant, served as a Minister in Alhaji Shehu Shagari’s government in the 1980s and as Pro-Chancellor of the University of Ilorin from 1997 to 1999.

During President Olusegun Obasanjo’s administration in the 2000s, he also served as Minister of Special Duties.

In his letter, Muhammad stated that the state’s Ministry for Local Government and Chieftaincy Affairs informed the Emirate Council of Kirfi’s “disloyalty and disrespect” to the governor, resulting in his removal from office.

“The content of the said letter indicated your disloyalty and disrespect to the Executive Governor of the State and the government. It therefore directed for your removal with immediate effect.
