Protests Trails Disbanded
Kano Emirate.
Protesters are currently
on the streets of Gaya, one of the five emirates affected by the repealed Kano
Emirates Council Law.
This is coming after the
New Nigeria People’s Party, controlled House of Assembly had repealed the law
which ex-Governor Abdullahi Ganduje used to dethrone Alhaji Muhammadu Sanusi II
in 2020.
Assenting to the law,
Governor Abba Yusuf said, the dissolution followed the four extra emirates
created by Ganduje, which are Rano, Gaya, Karaye and Bichi emirates.
The Governor also
ordered all the monarchs, including Alhaji Aliyu Ibrahim Abdulkadir, Emir of
Gaya, to hand over to Comrade Abdulsalam Gwarzo, Deputy Governor, who oversees
the Ministry of Local Government and Chieftaincy Affair.
