Women under the eagis of Tangale Community Development Association (TCDA) have asked the embattled Mai Tangle, Malam Danladi Maishanu to desist from using non-existing Tangale women groups to promote his failed mission.

The women were speaking shortly after a meeting in Billiri to discuss what they term “desperate attempts” by Malam Danladi to “promote himself as Mai Tangle.”

The women said it had been established by Tangale elders and credible Tangale sociocultural groups that Malam Danladi Maishanu is not a Tangale man, and therefore cannot be Mai Tangle.

The women warned the embattled ruler to desist from sponsoring unknown people to pose as Tangale women leaders paying him a visit, adding that the act will not make him a Tangale man, talkless of Tangale paramount ruler.

The TCDA women were speaking against the backdrop of a video which circulated showing certain women at the palace of Mai Tangle, paying homage to Malam Danladi Maishanu, and calling for unity of the Tangale people.

The TCDA women said having failed in his efforts of getting the support of Tangale men, Malam Danladi Maishanu resorted to using “unknown women” who are after their stomach to stage a visit to him in the name of women leaders from the Tangale community.

The lead speaker, Mrs. Mary Simon who condemned the action of those who visited, said those women were unknown, and were not representatives of the Tangale women.

“We learnt that some women went and three of them spoke there. They were coarsed to apologize and seek for forgiveness.

“After the information I decided to inquire, so, I asked a number of Tangale women, but each person I asked said they didn’t go, majority were not even aware of the visit.

“Those women should come over and explain to us who sent them there and what they did there, because we did not send them and they couldn’t have spoken for the Tangale women.

“We are the ones offended here – Tangale men have been innocently arrested and incacerated for three years, for an offense they did not commit. Why should we go and beg for forgiveness, which offense did we commit? They should tell us what we did that is wrong.

“As Tangale women we say God will avenge for us, and He will avenge for our land,” she said.

Also speaking, an elderly person, Mrs. Akula Kano said there was no way Tangale women will visit Mr. Danladi Maishanu, adding that they don’t even know the women that visited him.

“We want to know them; we call for an investigation, and if these women are found they should be arrested and prosecuted.

“This is pure mischief; the women are impostors. They lied, we did not send them,” she said.

Some of the women who spoke called on the Chairperson of Billiri Local Government Council, Mrs. Egla Idris to rise to the occasion of protecting the interest of the Tangale people.

They tasked the Chairperson to prioritize the cause of Tangale women, as well as the release of the innocent Tangale people detained in connection with the 2021 Billiri crisis.

The women also asked Governor Inuwa Yahaya of Gombe State to make public the report of the commission of inquiry into Billiri crisis, wondering how an attack by miscreants on Tangale women conducting peaceful protest turned out to be interpreted as religious crisis.
