It was double celebration for the CBN Governor, Mallam Sanusi Lamido Sanusi, and his wife, Sadiya, as they celebrated their 25th Wedding Anniversary with the conferment of the chieftaincy title of "Giwar Dan Maje" on his wife.

The title is literarily translated to mean ’Elephant of Dan Maje"- the strength behind the traditional title of the CBN boss. The CBN Governor did not waste time to tell everyone present that Sadiya has been the pillar of success in his married life at the occassion which took place in Kano. Another photo after the cut:

He was quoted as saying: “The title, Giwar Dan Maje which I am conferring on my wife today represents strength, it represents stability, it represents protection. In every household, the first wife is the pillar. She may be joined by one, two or three other wives.

“I give Sadiya a lot of credit for the peace and stability in my house, even those that has not known us but come to the house for the first time easily recognize her as the pillar of stability in the house.

“It is in recognition of this our living together for 25 years and in appreciation of her role that I give her this title.”

Congrats to the couple and wishing them many more blissful years together...!
