Fulani Socio-Cultural Association, Miyetti Allah Kautal Hore, has suspended its National Director of Information, Bala Bayero, for alleged insubordination.
Saleh Alhassan, national secretary of the association, in a statement, noted that the National Executive Council (NEC) of the association approved the suspension of the official with immediate effect.
He disclosed that the suspended official openly expressed support for the ongoing nationwide hunger protest, which was against the position taken by the association that directed all its members not to participate or openly support the protest.
He said a five-member committee has been constituted by the NEC of the association to further investigate the activities of the suspended official and report back to the national headquarters of the association for further action.
He asked the public to take note of the development, and disregard any information from the suspended official as he does not represent the position of the association.
