This was stated at a press conference addressed by the state’s Attorney General and Commissioner for Justice, Haruna Isah Dederi, on Saturday.

Dederi stated that the judgement of the Appeal Court had overturned all earlier decisions by the Federal High Court on the chieftaincy matters and reaffirmed the decisions of Governor Abba Yusuf.

“On behalf of the Kano State Government, we express our profound satisfaction with the Judgment delivered by the Court of Appeal, Abuja Division, regarding the Emirate Council matter involving His Highness Khalifa Muhammadu Sanusi II and other parties.

“The verdict overturns earlier decisions by the Federal High Court and validates the government’s lawful actions regarding the chieftaincy appointments and reforms in the state’s traditional institutions.

“This ruling reaffirms the government’s commitment to justice, fairness, and adherence to due process in our efforts to modernize traditional structures while preserving the cultural heritage of Kano State.

“The judgment further clarifies the rightful jurisdiction over chieftaincy matters, underscoring the constitutional boundaries of the courts in such affairs.

“The decision by the appellate court to void previous Judgments that questioned the state’s lawful appointments underscores the correctness of our actions and strengthens our resolve to continue reforms for equitable representation and inclusive governance.

“For the avoidance of doubt, all decisions, pronouncements, and orders made by the Federal High Court Kano have been quashed and set aside by the Court of Appeal.”

The Attorney General added that the the law enacted by the Kano State House of Assembly relating to Emirates and all actions taken by the Governor of Kano State pursuant to that law have been fully upheld and legalised by the Court of Appeal.

“Therefore, in strict adherence to the rule of law and in defense of democracy, all public and private institutions, as well as individuals, are required to comply with the Court of Appeal decision and act accordingly to give full effect to the Judgment,” the Attorney General stated.

He further extended appreciation to the Judiciary for upholding the principles of Justice and fairness.

He expressed the commitment of the state government to working with traditional institutions, ensuring harmony, and fostering development across all emirates.

“Let us continue to prioritise the collective good of Kano State above all individual interests,” he said.
