Kano Government Reinstates Dethroned Emir Of Gaya, Appoints New Emirs

Kano State Governor Abba Kabir Yusuf has approved the appointment of new emirs for the Gaya, Karaye, and Rano Emirates.

The announcement was made through a statement by the Director General, Media and Publicity to the governor, Sanusi Bature Dawakin Tofa.

The newly appointed emirs are Alhaji Muhammad Maharaz Karaye, who will lead the Karaye Emirate, Alhaji Muhammad Isa Umar, who will head the Rano Emirate, and Alhaji Aliyu Ibrahim Abdulkadir Gaya, who has been reinstated as the emir of Gaya Emirate.

The governor congratulated the new emirs and charged them to promote culture, peace, and unity in their respective emirates. The appointments take effect immediately.

This development follows the passage of the Kano State Emirate Council establishment bill by the Kano Assembly and the governor’s assent to the bill, leading to the creation of three second-class emirates.

Governor Yusuf on Tuesday said that the establishment of the emirates recognizes the importance of traditional institutions and demonstrates the government’s commitment to preserving cultural heritage.
