The Bauchi State government on Friday called for peace in Bogoro and Tafawa Balewa local government areas of the state following the arrest of the

self-acclaimed Gung Zaar, Air Commodore Ishaku Komo , and six others over the April 15 communal clash at Sang village.

The governor’s aide stated that the attention of the state government had been drawn to the activities of some unscrupulous elements who wanted to disrupt the hard-earned peaceful coexistence prevailing in the state. “Government is aware that the timely action by security authorities was aimed at calming down tension in Bogoro Local Government Area and environs, where the self-acclaimed monarch has illegally appointed a local chief for Sang Village, which resulted in the disruption of peace by burning of houses and loss of one life.”

Gidado further stated: “Government is very aware of its responsibility of protecting lives and properties of all citizens residing in the state as well as the maintenance of law and order.
