PUBLIC APOLOGY

My attention has been drawn to reactions following my recent comment which took place on 21/3/2026 and 23/3/2026 on the forthcoming Lim Bisa Day Program 2026. In the interest of peace, unity, and mutual understanding, I wish to apologize as follows:

1. To the Lim Bisa Day Planning Committee: 

I sincerely apologize if my comment or the issues I raised created any form of tension. That was never my intention. My write-up may have been misunderstood as an attack on your efforts, but my true intention was to offer constructive observations on what could be improved.

2. To the Respected Invited Guests:

I humbly apologize to all the invited guests, if my comment may have caused any discomfort or affected your willingness to attend the event. The publication was never meant to create a negative impression, and I regret any misunderstanding it may have caused.

3. To those Who Supported and Believed in My Views:

To everyone who supported and believed in my opinions or views, I sincerely appreciate your solidarity. I apologize if you faced any form of criticism because of this. Please be assured that your perspective was not entirely wrong—constructive criticism should not be mistaken for condemnation. Our shared intention has always been for the good of our community.

My hope is that every step we take should strengthen unity rather than create division, and that our actions today should positively shape the future of our generation.

Finally, the journey toward unity is not for the weak, but for those who truly believe in making peace.

Thank you, and God bless the people of Lim.

Can Any Chiefdom in Nigeria Truly Survive without Politics?

The concern that Zaar culture is beginning to embrace politics is understandable, especially given the sensitivity of identity, tradition, and leadership. 

However, it is important to ask a sincere and practical question: *Is there any chiefdom in Nigeria today that can truly survive without politics?* 

The reality is that no chiefdom operates in isolation from political structures. 

Across the country, traditional institutions—whether among the Yoruba traditional institutions or the Hausa-Fulani emirate system—exist and function within frameworks that are recognized and supported by government. 

The creation of chiefdoms, the approval of traditional rulers, and even the establishment of administrative structures are all tied, in one way or another, to political processes.

This does not mean that culture is being replaced by politics. Rather, it shows that politics and tradition often coexist, especially in a modern state like Nigeria.

The real issue, therefore, is not whether politics is involved—but how it is managed.

If politics is used as a tool to:

1. Promote unity

2. Bring development

3. Secure recognition and rights for the people

Then it becomes beneficial. 

But if it is allowed to:

1. Create division

2. Undermine tradition

3. Promote personal or sectional interests

Then it becomes a problem.

In the case of the Zaar people, what should matter most is that our culture, values, and identity remain strong and respected, regardless of any political connection.

The establishment of the Chiefdom and related developments should be seen as an opportunity to strengthen our heritage, not weaken it.

Therefore, instead of seeing politics as a threat, we should focus on ensuring that it is guided with wisdom, fairness, and a deep respect for our traditions.

Politics may be inevitable, but preserving our culture is a responsibility we must all uphold.
