As Zuru Emirate prepares to fill the revered throne left vacant by the passing of its late Emir, the eyes of the kingmakers, the Makera, and indeed the entire people of Zuru are focused on the search for a worthy successor. Among the distinguished sons of the land, one name continues to attract attention and genuine sympathy across the emirate, Nuhu Bello Dabai, CNA, CFIP, MCILRM, FIPMA.
A Royal Bloodline Rooted in History
Born into the Dantudu Gomo Royal Family, Nuhu is not a stranger to the heritage of leadership and service. His ancestry gives him a legitimate claim, but more importantly, his personal character, humility, and discipline have earned him respect far beyond his family ties. To the Makera and the people, he represents continuity without compromise.
An Accomplished Professional
Unlike many, Nuhu combines noble lineage with unmatched professional achievements. He is a Certified National Accountant, a Certified Forensic and Investigative Auditor, a Certified Loan and Risk Manager, and a Fellow of the Institute of Professional Managers and Administrators. He has completed final examinations at the Chartered Institute of Administration and is awaiting induction, while also pursuing a Master’s degree in Forensic Accounting.
These qualifications underscore not only his competence but his preparedness to guide the emirate into an era where traditional leadership must coexist with modern accountability, governance, and development.
A Career Built on Integrity
Since beginning his career in 2005 at the Supreme Court of Nigeria, Nuhu has been consistent in his devotion to duty, transparency, and fairness. His transfer to the National Judicial Council (NJC) in 2017 reinforced his place as a trusted custodian of justice and integrity. For nearly two decades, he has proven that leadership is not about privilege but about service, a value deeply cherished in the traditions of Zuru.
A Candidate Who Embodies the People’s Aspirations
What makes Nuhu Bello Dabai stand tall among his peers is his rare balance of tradition, education, and public service. He is approachable, compassionate, and deeply connected to his people. His ambition is not self-seeking but driven by a sense of duty to uphold the dignity of the throne and advance the unity, peace, and progress of the Zuru Emirate.
He is equally committed to supporting government policies and working in close partnership with government institutions to ensure lasting peace, security, and development.
