Tuesday, March 4, 2025 - The Assembly of Councillors in Shira Local Government Area of Bauchi State has removed Chairman Hon. Abdullahi Ibrahim Beli and his Deputy, Hon. Usman Adamu, from office.
Their removal followed an investigation by a committee that found them
guilty of gross misconduct, financial mismanagement, failure to perform their
duties, and abuse of office.
A resolution signed by 10 councillors, including Council Leader Hon.
Wali Adamu and his deputy, officially declared the offices of both the Chairman
and Vice Chairman vacant with immediate effect.
“The removal of the Chairman and his deputy is based on the findings of
the investigation committee, which has established that the chairman and his
deputy were engaged in financial mismanagement, failed to perform their duties,
breached the trust placed on them, and abused their office,” the resolution
stated.
While briefing journalists on the development, the Council Leader said
both Beli and Adamu had been under growing scrutiny over their management of
the local government’s affairs. He stated that despite several warnings, they
had failed to perform their duties and had lost the trust of the people of
Shira, making their removal inevitable.
