The Nyakwala ruling House of Matarfada District of Wukari Local Government of Taraba state is appealing to Governor Agbu Kefas to intervene in royal crisis created by the demised of Hakimi Matarfada in 2000.
The Jalingo High Court in 2022 ordered the Wukari traditional council to select a new Chief from Nyakwala ruling House and frowned at the selection of none members of the ruling house as chief.
Nyakwala is a peaceful farming Community under Wukari Local Government area of Taraba state.
It appears that the death of Gambo Sule the district head of Matarfada the last chief of the community is now affecting leadership in the community.
The Nyakwala ruling house in 2022 challenged Wukari traditional council in the state high court for attempting to impose an acting district head on the community.
Some members of the ruling house say there is an attempt to erase their name off the stool that belong to their forefathers who settled in the town in 1300.
But a community leader in Nyakwala Rev Samson Dan-Usman has appealed to Governor Kefas and the Aku Uka of Wukari to put in place a peaceful initiative that would prevent unforeseen crisis
The chairman of Wukari Local government area is asking all aggrieved parties to shield their swords saying governor kefas administration will leave no stone unturned towards a peaceful coexistence.
Although some of the farming land belong to Nyakwala community including Community fishpond which are now confiscated by Chief of Bantaje.
The Kefas administration has been working hard in promoting unity and coexistence among the nationalities of various tribes that made up Taraba state.
