Don’t dissolve Kano emirates, APC chieftain warns Yusuf

A chieftain of the All Progressives Congress in Kano, Alhajj Alhassan Yaryasa, has advised Governor Abba Yusuf against any attempt to sack the five Emirs in the state.

Recall that the immediate past administration of former Governor Abdullahi Ganduje created four additional emirates and sacked the former Emir of Kano, Alhaji Muhammadu Sanusi II, and replaced him with Alhaji Aminu Ado Bayero.

After the New Nigeria People’s Party defeated the APC in the 2023 governorship election, the leader of the NNPP and ex-Kano governor, Rabiu Kwankwaso, had promised that the Yusuf-led NNPP administration would reverse Ganduje’s decision and restore the Kano Emirate to what it was.

“We tried not to intervene in the issue of bringing or removing any Emir, but now, an opportunity has come. Those who were given this opportunity will sit down and see the issues. They will look at what they are expected to do.

“Besides the Emir, even the emirate has been divided into five places. All these need to be studied. Usually, a leader inherits good, bad, and issues that are hard to reconcile,” Kwankwaso, who is Yusuf’s political godfather, had said early May 2023.

Speaking with The PUNCH on Thursday in Kano, Yaryasa, who was the Coordinator of the Tinubu Camping Organisation for Kano South, warned Yusuf not to go ahead with the threat to upset the Kano emirate arrangement created by Ganduje.

He said the advice was necessary in the interest of peace following recent calls on the governor to dissolve the emirates.


According to him, the governor was being pressured by some people who were bent on causing trouble in Kano and creating disaffection between the government and the people of the emirates.

Yaryasa said, “I want to advise Governor Abba Kabir Yusuf to disregard such calls on him to dissolve the four emirates by some people who do not wish the state well.

“The governor is now a father to all people in the state, irrespective of political inclination. Those calling for the removal or scrapping of the emirates are enemies of the state and are doing so for their personal and selfish interests.”

Our correspondent observed that recently there were calls from some quarters on Governor Yusuf, especially on social media platforms, to dissolve the four new emirates and sack the present Kano Emir, Alhaji Aminu Ado Bayero and reinstate the former Emir, Alhaji Muhammadu Sanusi II.

Yaryasa said any attempt to scrap the emirates would not augur well for the state as it would be greeted with stiff resistance, especially from the people of the emirates.

“The governor is popular but if he attempts to dissolve the new emirates, it will seriously affect his popularity.

“I want to draw his attention to the fact that traditional rulers are not political office appointees whom you can remove any time at will without committing a serious offence,” Yaryasa said.

He called on respected elders in the state to caution the governor against such plans to tamper with the new emirates, stressing any attempt to dissolve the new emirates would be resisted.

“There is an urgent need for elders in the state to advise the governor against succumbing to any pressure on the new emirates because it will not augur well for the state.

“There should be a law that would prevent politicians, especially governors and other elected political officeholders from meddling in the affairs of traditional institutions in the country.

“Politicians should respect traditional institutions, otherwise it will be rendered useless in the eyes of the society,” the APC chieftain said.

I think it is disgraceful. They shouldn't do it and mock their tradition.
Apart of the mockery of tradition, these are also religious leaders so it might escalate.

Your a advice could have been the best for gaduje while he was the governor of Kano state

“There should be a law that would prevent politicians, especially governors and other elected political officeholders from meddling in the affairs of traditional institutions in the country.


Was it not politicians that meddled into traditional institution to create those Emirates in the first instance?

When Gandollar dethroned SLS and balkanized the unitary emirship into Emirates, he rendered the office powerless and useless.

Growing up, names like Ado Bayero was called with fear and reverence even though I am not from the core north , today who outside kano knows the emir of Bichi for instance?

The lamentation is akin to cutting the nose to spite the face

Self interest, ganduje sacked Sanusi to deprive
the whole of kano people their fundamental rights, loot them dry and watch them cry while terrorism soured in the state. He also thought it would last till he died of old age. I hope the new government probes his illiterate and greedy looking smirk face. Let the Efcc/police/court even seize his passports immediately while leading the investigation!

Finally, I hope the old Kano caliphate returns to its once lost glory.. NNPP will go great 👍

Why didn't you advice Ganduje who decided to take things personal with Sanusi? Truth be told, the Kano emirate has become a laughable one since it was splitted into five. It makes no sense to me

Where was he when gandollar was meddling in traditional affairs and destroying decades of history ?

"traditional rulers are not political office appointees whom you can remove any time at will without committing a serious offence".

Where were you when the former governor did the same thing to SLS? Your brain started working now that you are in opposition in Kano abi? Dey play there

If not for selfish reasons, why did Ganduje create additional Emirates.

Now the real thing is about to be done... you are shouting.

We're was he when Ganduje was doing the wrong thing..

Did he resist the attempt?

Noise maker..

He should have advised Ganduje not to balkanized the Emirates.

If I were the governor I would have arrested this man for his I'll fated advice. The advice should have been given to ganduje. He will not only dissolve the emirate but also reinstate SLS

I don't think de Gov. Is going to do daht, kwankwaso was only bluffing

Emirate is to Arsenal!

Emirate dey 9ja again?

Ok

Keep quiet oga. Ganduje interfered in traditional Chieftaincy issues and removed Sanusi but heaven did not fall. It is what it is. Nothing will still happen if the present Governor interferes.

Gandollar/APC balkanized and destroyed the once powerful and Revered kano emirate.
Were was this adviser when the stool was made powerless?

Shut up!!!

Gandollar could've benefited more from this advice

Yusuf must pls dissolve the emirates and anything that got to with APC in kano..

He lost his voice when Sanusi was sacked by his principal,only to find his voice now...however an eye for an eye keeps everyone blind. There should be an amicable and acceptable way out of this quagmire. Let them give peace a chance.

You are not in position to tell them what to do

[b][/b] please be wise stop the tribal war.
It just feels like yesterday, Buhari came in promising Eldorado. But upon seeing that it isn't as easy as Jonathan made it look, they decided to devise a means that will ensure that Nigerians don't give them the Ghadaffi treatment>>>> TRIBALISM. It worked so well, and ever since then, the APC has become invincible. No matter how low they sink this country, mark my words, they will always get away with it! At this point, someone has to step in or else...
Anyone waiting for a revolution is just wasting his time. All the APC has to do is pay Sam Larry and his thugs to infiltrate whatever protest or revolution and cause mayhem. Or if that doesn't work, give the revolution a tribal colouration and voila! people will throw their common sense out the window. God bless Nigeria.
