Gombe Government Appoints Danladi Sanusi As Mai Tangale, Despite Protests - Edoman - 03-03-2021 Governor Muhammadu Inuwa Yahaya of Gombe State has appointed Malam Danladi Sanusi Maiyamba as the Mai Tangale. The vacant stool was occasioned by the death of Dr. Abdu Buba Mausharu, the 15th Mai Tangale and only Christian monarch in the North-East, last month. The selection process turned violent with three persons killed and property worth millions of naira destroyed in Billiri Local Government Area of Gombe State as the crisis over the appointment of a new Mai Tangale deepened. The residents and indigenes several times insisted on the choice of Dr. Musa Idris Maiyamba, a position the State Government isn't very comfortable with, instead preferring a Muslim, as alleged. To forestall further crisis, the Gombe State Government had declared a curfew and suspended the appointment of a new Mai Tangale until today. The Tangale are predominantly Christian with a small percentage of Islam and traditional religion as well. Quote:3rd March, 2021 SOURCE The Gombe State Government was also petitioned in November last year, after the most Senior Judge, Justice Beatrice Iliya was excluded from the Chief Judge Nominees List, for being Christian; an act that drew widespread condemnation. |
