He added that “We are accusing the Bauchi Emirate Council of behind the move to eject us in collaboration with the military authorities. We just saw some Soldiers on Saturday who came and asked us to vacate our homes. He added that “The map and certificate were issued to Army and the Army was not part of the compensation process, it was done by Bauchi State government and Bauchi Emirate council”. Bauchi State Police Command confirmed that there was a peaceful protest by the communities over the alleged invasion of their land by military personnel who were erecting some fences around the land. This development has sent shivers down the spines of West Africans who are still grappling with the effects of the coronavirus pandemic.
