Barely 48 hours after he assented to a bill splitting Kano
Emirate into five, Governor Abdullahi Ganduje has appointed four new Emirs in
Kano State.
The new emirs are Aminu Ado Bayero (Bichi), Ibrahim
Abdulkadir (Gaya), Tafida Abubakar (Rano), and Ibrahim Abubakar (Karaye).
Ado Bayero is one of the sons of the predecessor of
Muhammadu Sanusi, the incumbent Emir of Kano.
A statement from the state Commissioner for Information,
Muhammad Garba, says the new Emirs would receive their letters of appointment
and staff of office at a ceremony at Sani Abacha Stadium tomorrow Saturday May
11th.
