Kano State chairman of the New Nigeria People’s Party (NNPP), Hashimu Dungurawa, has alleged that the former governor of Kano State, Umar Ganduje, only appointed the 15th Emir of Kano, Aminu Ado Bayero and four other first class Emirs in pursuance of political gains ahead of the 2023 general elections.
Dungurawa stated this while responding to questions from journalists in Kano.

According to him, it was a gamble that was arranged to expire with the tenure of the former governor who subsequently lost the elections.

The chairman posited that, for the interest of public good, they should cease to be recognised after Ganduje’s administration during which they enjoyed the status of appointed commissioners.

“The five first class Emirs we met on throne were only commissioners appointed by Ganduje to assist him to win elections in 2023. They were sustained to 2023 and they lost. And so their tenure came to an end.

“The fact remains that immediately Ganduje lost the elections and stepped down as governor of Kano State, they ought to have also vacated their seats because none of them occupied the vacant seat of Emir of Kano since Muhammadu Sanusi II left.

“But maybe they didn’t accept that their tenure has expired after their benefactor lost the elections which witnessed Dr Ganduje’s exit from the seat of power in the state,” he said.

Dungurawa however noted that the decision to relieve them of their traditional status was rooted to public outcry over the vacant position of the Emir of Kano, which prompted Governor Abba Yusuf to reinstate Muhammadu Sanusi II who was earlier dethroned after the Kano Emirate council law 2019 was repealed by the state lawmakers and assented to by the governor.

Reacting to the hoisting of flag at the Nassarawa mini-palace, he said, “Don’t forget Nassarawa mini-palace is a guest house for the Emir. It is all about the Kano Emirate, it shows the SA to Emir of Kano is doing his job faithfully by overseeing the graveyard of their forefathers laid to rest in the mausoleum.”

He further commended Justice A. Liman for handling the attendant legal tussle that was brought before his lordship in a professional way.
