The Gwantu Traditional Council of Sanga local government area of Kaduna State says its  attention had been drawn to a publication by an online news medium over a purported rejection of the traditional title of the “Danmasanin Gwantu” by one Mr Isa Waziri,  the erstwhile “Wazirin of Gwantu District under the present Gwantu Chiefdom.

A statement issued by the council secretary, Aliyu David Ajetu said; “The prestigious  traditional title of the prime minister (Wazirin-Gwantu) was bestowed on Dr (Alhaji) Yahaya Abdullahi Mohammed by the chief of the defunct Numana Chiefdom, late Mallam Gambo Makama.

Subsequently, the district head of Gwantu under the then Numana Chiefdom, Alh Bashir Mohammed also bestowed a similar traditional title of” Wazirin-Gwantu” on Dr Isa Waziri without recourse and adequate consultations with stakeholders.

“Consequently, following the dissolution and changes on the various traditional institutions in Kaduna State by former Governor Nasir Ahmad El-rufai two new chiefdoms were created  out of the defunct Numana Chiefdom namely Gwantu and Arak Chiefdoms.

“On ascension to the throne in December, 2022 the present Chief of Gwantu (Etum Gwantu) Alh Balarabe Abdullahi Karma deemed it wise and pertinent to dissolved all traditional titles bestowed on individuals under the then Numana Chiefdom and provided a virile platform for the erstwhile title holders interested on maintaining their title to reapply for same under his leadership. 

The then “Wazirin Numana” Dr (Alh) Yahaya Abdullahi Mohammed did applied for reappointment as The “Waziri” under the present Gwantu traditional Council and was considered and approved by the Paramount Ruler, Alh Balarabe Abdullahi Karma.  This position was duely acknowledged and recognised as well as gazetted in the archive of the present Gwantu Chiefdom.

This confirmation is to lay to rest the purported claims by Mr Isa Waziri  that he was unjustly removed and was being compensated through an offer by the district head of Gwantu with the title of “Danmasani” a very arrangement that the district head waived as a figment of fabricated lies through a letter addressed to Mr Isa Waziri  dated 3rd November, 2023 in which the district head even denied making him the offer for the title of the Danmasani Gwantu.
