 Lamido of Adamawa Retains Council of Chiefs Chairmanship as Assembly Clarifies Rotation Reports


The Lamido of Adamawa, Alhaji Muhammadu Mustapha, will continue to serve as the permanent chairman of the Adamawa State Council of Chiefs, the State House of Assembly confirmed on Friday. This clarification comes after reports claimed that the Lamido had been stripped of the position and that a bill had been passed to introduce a rotational chairmanship among other emirs and chiefs.


Musa Mahmud, Chairman of the Assembly's Standing Committee on Information, addressed the media at the state assembly complex in Yola, rejecting the claims as false. He emphasized that the Assembly had not passed any bill to remove the Lamido from his role.


“The allegation that the House passed a bill removing the Lamido of Adamawa from his chairmanship position and instituting a rotational system is incorrect,” Mahmud stated.


He further clarified that the bill specifies the Lamido of Adamawa as the chairman of the State Council of Chiefs, as outlined in Section 18(II). However, the media attention surrounding the bill was related to the creation of zonal traditional councils, which include provisions for rotational chairmanship within those councils.


Mahmud explained that while the rotational chairmanship applies to the new zonal traditional councils — covering the Central, Northern, and Southern zones — all zonal chairmen will still report to the state chairman, who remains the Lamido of Adamawa.
