Miyetti Allah Demands Release of Bodejo Before Political Support

The Bauchi State Council of Miyetti Allah Kautal Hore has declared that it will not support any political party candidate until the release of its national leader, Alhaji Bello Bodejo, who is currently detained. During a press conference in Bauchi, the state chairman, Alhaji Sale Garbu, urged President Bola Ahmed Tinubu to intervene and facilitate Bodejo's release or ensure that due process is followed if there are legal grounds for his detention.

Garbu expressed concern over Bodejo's prolonged detention without being presented in court, which has raised worries among the association's members and has adversely affected Bodejo's family. He emphasized Bodejo's contributions to peace and security in Nigeria.

Additionally, Garbu called on Bauchi State Governor Senator Bala Abdulkadir Mohammed to assist in securing Bodejo's release. The state secretary, Sulaiman Shehu, also urged traditional rulers to leverage their influence to help resolve the situation peacefully and lawfully.
