Kano State Governor, Alhaji Abba Kabir Yusuf has announced his intention to reinstate Muhammadu Sanusi II as the Emir of Kano.

Daily Report Nigeria reports that Yusuf plans to propose a bill to amend the Kano Emirates Law, which will abolish the additional four emirates that existed with first-class Emirs.

The move is expected to be the first official task of the newly inaugurated Kano State House of Assembly, which took place on June 13 and had Jibrin Falgore of Rogo Constituency elected as Speaker.

In 2019, former governor Abdullahi Umar Ganduje passed a law that diminished the powers of the Emir of Kano when the new governor was overseeing only ten out of the forty-four local government areas he previously controlled.

With Ganduje’s bill, the Kano Emirate comprised Kano Municipal, Tarauni, Dala, Nassarawa, Fagge, Gwale, Kumbotso, Ungogo, Dawakin Kudu, and Minjibir local government areas.

The Karaye Emirate consisted of Karaye, Rogo, Gwarzo, Kabo, Rimin Gado, Madobi, and Garun Malam local government areas. Bichi Emirate includes Bichi, Bagwai, Shanono, Tsanyawa, Kunchi, Makoda, Danbatta, Dawakin Tofa, and Tofa local government areas, while Rano Emirate covered Rano, Bunkure, Kibiya, Takai, Sumaila, Kura, Doguwa, Tudun Wada, Kiru, and Bebeji local government areas.

Gaya Emirate included Ajingi, Albasu, Wudil, Garko, Warawa, Gezawa, Gabasawa, and Gaya local government areas.

The above-mentioned move did not only reduce the powers held by Sanusi II but also unseated the then Emir.

However, the new government was determined to restore the previous status of the Kano emirate. Yusuf, a political protégé of former governor Rabiu Kwankwaso has paved the way for the imminent reinstatement.

A source who spoke with newsmen in confidence said:

“The passage of the new law will result in the state having only one first-class Emir. The current Emir of Kano, Aminu Ado Bayero, may be removed from his position to make way for his nephew, Muhammadu Sanusi, to return to the throne of his ancestors.”

It was revealed that the bill will be presented to the House on Thursday and will be read by the Majority Leader, Lawan Hussaini, representing Dala Constituency.

The leader of the Kwankwasiyya Movement, Rabiu Kwankwaso, had previously criticised the creation of the new emirates in various statements before the election.

The new governor believes that the people of Kano voted for him to bring restoration to the state.

The new government has embraced this sentiment and has reversed several initiatives of the previous administration, including demolishing illegal structures constructed during the Ganduje administration and repealing the Kano Emirate Law.
