Kano Emirate: An Emir Unusual Era by Stephenmgj3e(m): 2:09pm On May 13, 2019
Those who think that Abdullahi Gandunje, governor of Kano state had balkanised the over 200 -year – old Kano traditional system ostensibly to weaken the influence and powers of Muhammadu Lamido Sanusi II, a former governor of Central Bank of Nigeria, CBN, and current Emir of Kano, who was recently appointed into the MTN, Board of Directors, would be disappointed.

This is because the governor , according to sources had held wide consultations at the state and the Federal level including meeting with the Kano Kingmakers who gave him the go ahead to create additional Emirates out of the old Kano Emirate.

ndeed, signs that Sanusi II, the Emir of Kano, would have his Kingdom split emerged early after Gandunje, the All Progressive Congress, APC, governorship Candidate in the state won his re-election bid in the 2019 governorship election. The Value News learnt that he had repeatedly told those that cares to listen that if he state House of Assembly forwards a bill to him that requires his assent to create additional Emirates out of the old Kano traditional system, he will not hesitate to sign it.
