33,360 Ardos Worked For Tinubu Demand Wike’s Removal, Says He’s A Draconian Leader
During their zonal and national consultative meeting held today at the NICON Luxury Hotel Abuja, over 33,360 Ardos who are the traditional and spiritual leaders of the specific Fulbe Communities in Nigeria lamented how the current government under President Bola Ahmed Tinubu is on a wide rampage of ethnic profiling of many Nigerian tribes, groups, and individuals.
The Ardos said the Fulbe are the worst receiving the brunts of ethnic profiling in the current regime through the draconian policies and anti-people decisions the current Minister of FCT, Barr Nyesome Wike is unleashing.
Addressing Press men after their exhaustive meeting, the national president, Ardo Aliyu Yola said they had mobilized Fulbe in millions and cast their votes for President Bola Ahmed Tinubu after they had a meeting with him before the presidential election when he was the sole candidate of the All Progressives Congress, APC.
He boasted that their help to mount vigorous campaigns for President Bola Ahmed Tinubu to succeed in the presidential elections in 2023 was the fulfillment of the traditional oath they took in February and wholeheartedly delivered on election day.
Ardo Aliyu recalled how the Fulbes had a meeting with Tinubu on a cold February evening on the campaign trail where he spent quality time interacting with Ardos across the country towards a national movement that ensured massive votes for his candidacy within the Fulani community in Nigeria.
“It is with utmost pride that we recount the huge success recorded at the polls in 2023.” Ardo Aliyu said.
He worried that the appearance of Wike from the Blues to champion the course of the FCT has made the ethnic profiling of the Fulbe a pastime keep.
He stated that in recent times Minister Nyesome Wike came out with a draconian policy against herdsmen and grazing without providing any alternative as is done in civilized clime.
Ardo Aliyu further recalled the unconstitutional revocation of the contract agreement being handled by their Patron, Senator Ahmad Abubakar Moallayidi, Managing Director of Integrated Facility Management Services Ltd (IFMSL), managers of the International Conference Center (ICC) Abuja.
He said the unwise decision by Wike on their kinsman was a pure show of ethnic profiling against the group that supported well the emergence of Tinubu as the sitting President of Nigeria.
“Our recent concern is the onslaught of the FCT Minister’s unilateral, unconstitutional impunity with which he pronounced a revocation of the management contract of our patron Sen. Ahmad Abubakar MoAllahyidi who is also the convener of Arewa New Agenda (ANA).

“The targeting of our Patron, Senator Ahmad Abubakar MoAllahyidi by the Minister is a slap on our face, and we are very concerned that the action of the Minister is putting a wedge in the support we give to you Mr Presidentnt
“The Minister did not follow due process and, a subsisting contract was illegally revoked by a newspaper publication; this injustice, impunity, and character assassination against our patron is something that cannot be accepted in a democratic society.” He said
He continued to say that Wike is unnecessarily causing great havoc to this administration because he had little or not knowledge at all who is Senator Moallayidi and the huge contributions he made to support the winning election of President Bola Ahmed Tinubu.
He Said;” Where was Wike when our patron Sen Ahmad MoAllahyidi mobilized the Ardos and hosted the then presidential candidate Bola Ahmed Tinubu accompanied by the Chief of Staff Femi Gbajabiamila, the NSA, Mal Nuhu Ribadu, the APC Chairman, Abdullahi Umar Ganduje, the Deputy Senate President, Sen Jibril Barau, minister of Defence Abubakarar Badaru, the NAHCON Chairman, Barr. Jalal Arabi, the SA to the VP, Aliyu Umar Modibo, among other prominent leaders of the current administration at the same International Conference Center ICC to make a pact with the Fulbe leading to the resounding success at the polls.
“We all know that Minister Wike was then and still is in the opposition party, proudly a card-carrying member of PDP, and what is doing is more of fighting President Bola Ahmed Tinubu.”
He urged President Bola Ahmed Tinubu to intervene by calling Minister Wike to order and demanded that Wike be compelled at all times to follow due process in whatever is doing.
Aliyu who spoke on behalf of the Ardos further demanded that the FCT Minister desist from profiling the Fulbe group or any group of people or individuals, especially those who have worked to bring the administration of President Bola Ahmed Tinubu to be.
In their demands also they asked Tinubu to intervene by stopping Minister Wike from shutting down the ICC and tempering with the lawful contract agreement the IFMSL has which has a ten-year life span.
“We remind the President to fulfill the promises he made to the Fulbe regarding the setting of a livestock agency to cater for the migrant cattle rearers, to make the name of the Fulani a very respectable name and provide social welfare for them alongside other Nigerians.
“We are concerned that such an onslaught on our leaders is a direct repudiation of the effort that we contributed to bringing your administration to power. We kindly urge you to use your good office to call Minister Wike to order or remove him from the office he occupies to avoid the negative impact he is creating for your administration.
“We look forward to your very positive intervention as we continue to pledge our support and loyalty for the continuing success of the Barkindo of Fulbe Nigeria, His Excellency Bola Ahmed Tinubu GCFR as you lead this great country of a good people.” He demanded.
Ardo Aliyu,, however, said that the entire Ardos of the Fulbe United for Peace and Development commend the effort of President Bola Ahmed Tinubu whose administration is providing good leadership for the country. And appreciated him for the giant strides he is making in leading the country and will continue to support him for the good is doing if their demands are met.
