"Henceforth, no Emir, Senior District Head or District Head must appoint anybody into any traditional office without securing official permission and clearance from the state Government.

“Compliance to this directive is now mandatory and failure to it will attract serious reprimand from the state Government”, the Governor warned in the statement.

Daily Trust has reported how the Yandoto Emirate conferred a title on a notorious bandit Adamu Alero, a development that raised dust within and outside the state.
