Kano Assembly abolishes Emirates created by Ganduje

 

The Emirs of Rano, Karaye, Gaya, and Bichi, who were installed in 2019, may be stripped of their titles and powers, following the Assembly’s decision to revert to the original emirates structure.

 

The affected Emirates include those of Gaya, Rano, Karaye and Bichi.

The Kano Assembly on Thursday passed a law scrapping those Emirates and returning them to districts under Kano Emirate.

It was gathered that the Governor of Kano State, Abba Kabir Yusuf, is set to give assent to the law

Once the law is given assent by the governor, all positions created by the previous law will no longer be valid according to the new legislation.

Additionally, all district leaders promoted or assigned under the previous law are required to return to their former roles.
