 * Admins cannot remove admin rights from any user, except themselves.
 * Bureaucrats can remove admin rights from any user, regardless of when they gained those rights.
 * Neither admins nor bureaucrats can remove bureaucrat rights, except themselves.

So:
 * If you are a Bureaucrat, you can remove his admin rights. (But not his Bureaucrat rights, if he is one)
 * If you are not a Bureaucrat, you should adopt the wiki.
 * If you wish for his Bureaucrat rights to be removed, start a community discussion about it, and provide a link to that discussion to Wikia Staff via Special:Contact.
