Ado Bayero is the Emir of Kano and the son of Abdullahi Bayero, the former emir, who reigned for 27 years. Muhammadu Sanusi who was Ado Bayero's half brother ruled after their father from 1953-1963. Following his dethronement in 1963, Muhammadu Inuwa ruled only for three months.

After his death, Ado Bayero ascended the throne in October 1963. Ado is one of the longest-serving emirs in the emirate's history.

During his tenure, the emirate has been transformed from a powerful native authority into a custodian of Hausa language and Islamic traditions. Bayero's palace plays host to official visits by many government personnel and foreigners, but in 1981 Governor Abubakar Rimi restricted traditional homage paid by village heads to Ado Bayero and excised some domains from his emirate.

In 1984, a travel ban was placed on the emir and his friend Okunade Sijuwade. Although the military are sometimes seen as relying on traditional rulers for support, many military regimes in the past reduced the powers of traditional rulers such as Bayero.

Bayero is a former chancellor of the University of Nigeria and currently the chancellor of the University of Ibadan. He has served as the chief of the Kano police. He was installed the Emir of Kano on October 22, 1963, becoming the 13th Fulani emir of Kano and the 56th ruler of the Kano Kingdom. Today (15th June, 2013) he celebrate 50years on Throne

Stop fronting, love.

Btw, just make sure you keep hyperbole out of your new project. If you can do that; I might make you my 25th wife. I'm trying to raise a nation and having a fulani chic as part of it won't be a bad idea.

Shalom!

He is ngeria's age mate. Could the dethrone emir be sanusi's father or grandfather?

Congratulation sir we wish you more years ahead.

Look at all the praises he is getting from every leader accross the country but there is a monarch in delta state that is the second longest reigning monarch in the world, he has ruled for 64 years, that is 5 years longer than queen elizabeth and just months later than the king of thailand. Why is he not he getting such recognition by our the country? Even all you nairalanders, shame on you. Look at the thrend on this great man and not a single comment, shame on the MOD too for not making it frontpage. Hausa comes first i guess!!
