Sensible. You v spoken well but he should still chop that emir after becoming president

budaatum:
This is interesting, and I wonder if Sanusi will return as Emir if asked.

Personally, I don't think he should, and should rather go do something better like become governor of Kano, and eliminate the alimanjeri system and further promote female education.

I really wouldn't mind if he were Emir and governor of Kano and in future becomes president of Nigeria, but I can just about imagine many opposing him because of his religion and the potential to be called Fulani.

Padipadi:
No be same northern states we hear sat dem budget N90bn for Hajj?
What a waste!

The Federal Government has come under fire for its recent decision to subsidise the 2024 Hajj with N90 billion despite allocating only N50 billion for the student loan scheme in the 2024 budget.

Education and legal experts have slammed the decision, noting that spending such a humongous amount of money to subsidise Hajj is a misplacement of priority.

Shettima said, “Mr President is committed to this year’s Hajj due to the economic situation. He has contributed N90bn billion to subsidise this year’s Hajj exercise to ensure a smooth and successful operation.

Indeed, "no be same Northern states" I hear.

Padipadi:
Wherever that N91bn is coming from, it should be returned ba k to CBN. To be used to empower 90,000 people with N1m each.
Pick 90,000 people across Nigeria for empowerment with N1m. That's how to run a govt.

Some of you that just started reading the news in the era of SM. The Govornor can dethrone all the above mentioned names and nothing will happen

Absolutely NOTHING.

I guess you don't know Awolowo dethroned the former Alaafin of Oyo. I guess you don't know.

Wakolord:
I don't know about the rest but that Oba of Benin rest.

happney65:
You are a complete joker. He will dethrone the Oba of Benin and nothing will happen

Since the time of the British,They have passed the right of the kings to the Govornors and the Govornors passed it down to the Ministry of Local government and chieftaincy matters.

All of them are under the ministry of Local government and chieftaincy matters and they rule over them indirectly. Na them dey pay them salaries and other emuloments.

Abi you don't know it is the Government that gives the King's staffs of Office? Or wasn't it Obaseki that gave the current one his staff of Office?

Let the Oba of Benin say anyhow,Obaseki will dethrone him today today and nothing,I repeat, Nothing will Happen

Nonesense!
