Second Republic Lawmaker, Dr. Junaid Mohammed, has applauded Kano Government for responding to the yearning and aspirations of the natives and splitting sprawling Kano Emirate into more.
Mohammed, who spoke with Vanguard last night, said the governor of the state, Ganduje, has done no wrong by taking the bold initiative to respond to the age-long desire of the majority of the people of Kano.


“If the governor does not create Emirates, who will do so,” the politician asked rhetorically when confronted with the question whether Ganduje was right in the first place to dismember Kano Emirate and appoint new Emirs.

“Governor Ganduje is simply responding to the age-long and popular demand of the people of the state and he should be applauded for this bold and courageous action, which has been widely accepted by the broad spectrum of our people,” Mohammed said.

The former Shehu Shagari’s aide pointed out that the laws of the state vest the powers on the governor through the state House of Assembly to regulate the existence and operations of Emirates in Kano State, adding that by splitting them into more, the governor was simply discharging his statutory duties.

Asked if the governor’s action would stand the test of the law, Mohammed affirmed that it would, adding, “Ganduje has not breached any known law by his action”.

Rimi did the same and it was reversed. Let's watch

It’s has political undertones

In fact it’s personal and political vendetta

Should decisions like this be voted on by popular referendum? I dont see where Gandolla broke the law splitting Emirate. Lol the only thing people can whine is being vindictive and hypocritical both of which are character flaws not crimes. Is the judge going to reverse decision because his heart was in wrong place?

I know if Ganduje scrapped the monarchy all together alot of people complaining would bite their tongues. All he has to say is we're going to redirect cash to education and helping almajaris. They'll just maintain things associated with it for tourism and tradition. (Think of German or French castles)

The northern elites are together against Sanusi

Mr. Referendum, the law in Kano State governing the existing of the emirates places that responsibility on the State Assembly. Why are you wailing than the indegenes of Kano?

Lol you clearly don't comprehend what I wrote. The question about referendum is just a hypothetical alternative. I said he didnt break the law and stated the judge cant punish him for being vindictive. Read whats written not what's in your imagination.

Ipobian pigs .
Over to you ...

Hypocrites everywhere. If it was Wike that did something like this, this same people critisizing Ganduje will be the ones praising him and calling him tough guy.
Wike has been caught on tape bribing INEC staff, he has been caught on tape threatening to kill election officers, he has been caught on tape bribing soldiers etc etc. But he is their hero and tough guy.

Meanwhile, I personally dont fancy the balkanization of Kano emirate. It is the biggest in the country an I would love for it to be kept that way. But that's for Kanawas to decide. So as it is now, nothing concern me

if they like they should break it into 50 emirs



none of our biz down SS

Anyhow

Amazing

Ambode should do the same in Lagos.

We need first class Obas for Alimonsho, Ikeja, and others

Anything to breakdown Oba Lagoon

Don't mind bigots.....meanwhile I don't buy your argument on keeping the Kano emirate the way it is..... It's too big and can't meet the needs of the people adequately as presently constituted.... An emir controlling all 44LGAs is too much.....afterall we all are here agitating for decentralisation of power from FG to give states more power

How did they measure it as an age long desire of the majority of Kanawa?

Its obvious kanawas are at home with the balkanisation but only meddlesome outsiders are complaining.very funny.kano is too big to be under one emirate.there's no state in the north that is under one emirate.in kebbi,we have argungu,zuru,yauri emirates.in katsina,even small daura is an emirate.in jigawa,we have dutse,hadejia etc.in zamfara we have gusau,mafara etc.in niger we have bida,suleja,kontagora.so why should kano have just one emirate?
A governor has the power to create emirates and ganduje exercised that.full stop

You said nothing

But he reminded you of atrocities of your heroes like wike......let me remind you of some of saint Jonathan's deeds
1. Sacked justice Ayo salami
2 16 is greater than 19 in governors forum
3 in rivers 5 lawmakers impeached the speaker
Used EFCC to hound opposition
Collected bribe to sell OPL245 to etete
Shielded dieziani and Oduah in face of glaring theft

All hail saint jonathan

Good arguments for and against, on this thread. Impressive.

Gandollar is a crook! But then Sanusi had it coming

Sanusi the number one enemy of GEJ and his goons who was fired for refusing to 'coporate' with GEJ is suddenly a friend to IPOB. Emeifiele (Igbo), an appointee of GEJ and who opened the bank vault for his failed reelection bid have suddenly become IPOB enemy #1 ~ his offense? I am yet to understand.
Just one of those reasons to tell you that this my people have fickle minds. Their ideology is neither here nor there.
Infact Tinubu, Amaechi, Rochas etc will be their friends as long as they distance themselves from Buhari/APC. What hate can do eh?
