\n
Senator Shehu Umar has expressed shock over the decision of Bauchi Emirate to withdraw his chieftaincy title of \u201cMujaddadin\u201d Bauchi for allegedly insulting Governor Bala Mohammed of Bauchi State.<\/p>\n
Umar in a letter addressed to the Emirate on Thursday said, \u201dwhile I have accepted the decision of the Emirate, I adhere to a policy of constructive criticism and refrain from use of abusive language\u201d.<\/p>\n
Umar said his response to Gov Bala\u2019s disparaging comments on President Bola Tinubu was aimed at defending the Nigerian leader against what he perceived as calculated attempts to tarnish his reputation and sow public discord.<\/p>\n
Umar, who is the Chairman, Senate Committee on National Security and Intelligence, said the governor\u2019s comments were confrontational, accusatory, abusive, and defamatory.<\/p>\n
\u201cI received with utter shock a letter dated August 14, informing me of the Bauchi Emirate Council\u2019s decision to withdraw my traditional title of Mujaddadin Bauchi.<\/p>\n
\u201cThis decision was made over an allegation that I insulted Gov. Bala Mohammed during a rally.<\/p>\n
\u201cMeanwhile, I must state that during the recent APC campaign flag-off, I responded to the Governor\u2019s disparaging comments on President Bola Tinubu, which I felt were calculated to expose the President to public contempt and disaffection,\u2019\u2019 the senator said.<\/p>\n
