From our correspondent, in Kano
Governor Abba Yusuf of Kano state has assented to the Kano State Emirates Council (Amendment number 2) Law, 2024.
The amended law had abolished the establishment of 5 Emirate councils of Kano, Bichi, Rano, Karaye and Gaya in the state.
The governor signed the bill into law in the presence of the Deputy Governor, Aminu Abdulsalam, Speaker, Isma’il Falgore, and the SSG, Abdullahi Bichi.
Speaking after the signing, the governor announced the reinstatement of Emir Muhammadu Sanusi ll, who was deposed by former governor, Abdullahi Ganduje in 2019.
The governor therefore gave the removed emirs 48 hours to vacate their palaces and hand over all necessary materials to the Commissioner for Local Government and Chieftaincy Affairs.
