Elders from Kano South call on Yusuf to rescind Kano Emirate Law for regional development

The chairman of the forum, Alhaji Musa Doguwa, recently made an appeal during a news conference in Kano, praising the upgrade of the new emirates in southern Kano under former governor, Dr Abdullahi Ganduje. Doguwa highlighted the positive impact of this upgrade, stating that it brought about urbanization, infrastructure expansion, and prosperity to the affected areas.

The new emirates, including Gaya, Rano, and Karaye, were described as having a rich historical background and representing a significant percentage of Kano state. Despite this, the elders expressed discontent with the decision to amend the emirate law, which they believed stripped them of their heritage and potential for growth.

While commending some members of the Kano State House of Assembly for their support, the elders urged others to align with them in preserving the traditions and history of these newly upgraded emirates. This call for unity and support aims to ensure the continued prosperity and cultural significance of these areas in southern Kano.
