[2] Inspired by the successes of other Albanian revolts, the regions of Vlorë, Berat and Skrapar rose in revolt under Buzi, Zenel Gjoleka and Çelo Picari, requesting the appointment of Albanian governors and officials in the rebel districts and the abolishment of new taxes.

[3] Buzi's rebellion in 1833 contested the provincial administration and conscription laws, as well as new Ottoman tax reforms.

Threatened by the Albanian rebel chiefs, Mustafa Nuri Pasha (the governor of Trikala), offered him the position of Derbend superintendent in the districts of Agrafa and Dömeke to prevent any further attacks in the region; it is possible that Buzi retained this position for a short period of time.

[5] In January 1835, the rebel committee signed an agreement with the Ottomans, who promised to fulfil their requests at the cost of disarmament.

When the agreement was quickly violated by the Ottoman government, the rebels under Buzi rose up again, this time marching to Ioannina.
