The state reach in part: “”Y isou issued a press statement and in that address, you said in five(5) months time you will actualize the Zaar chiefdom and the entire people were happy, they expressed their joy in the zaar usual way by dancing”

“Today is making it exactly six(6) months after your press statement, and nothing has been done about the Zaar Chiefdom actualization, no press briefing, no delegation, no legislation to that effect and we are so disturbed and confused to the fact that our respected governor will issue a statement and it did not come to pass. 

“Even though we are aware of some groups of individuals working against the proposition to sabotage it, we know that the governor has the final say. No indigene of Bauchi can tell the governor what to do as far as the state is concerned under your watch”

“On the issues of modalities for selection, Sir, this has been the position of the Zaar people, “Our mode of selection is one person not three”, and to that effect, we as a community has presented the name of Air Commodore Ishaku Komo Rtd the the proceeding government’s (Mal.Isa Yuguda) to be precise.  And it was a U animus decision of the Zaar people, with no objection”

“The Zaar people are still standing with their decision to uphold it in your own government as they have presented to you, Sir. We are not changing to a new one. We are highly principled, and we respect our principles. 

“The 95% of Zaar people are standing on the status quo, which is Air Commodore Ishaku Komo Rtd. That has been demonstrated in many ways, showing the whole world that the entire Zaar land is with Air Commodore Ishaku Komo Rtd”

“I know that you are a democratically elected governor, and you were sworn in as the governor of Bauchi State with the mandate of the majority. 

“Therefore, your government should be fair to Zaar people as the democratic government is to respect the wish of the majority since the actualization is targeted at the peace and Unity of Zaar land (Tafawa-balewa).

“It is my earnest prayer, and I hope that you will act on this reminder to fulfil your promise to Zaar people by confirming Air Commodore Ishaku Komo Rtd as the Gungzaar 1of Zaar kingdom” they stressed.
