Kano Emirate: the Dangers of Playing Politics with Institutions, By Jibrin Ibrahim - Premium Times Opinion

It would be recalled that Hon. Justice Badamasi had on May 23 restrained the governor of Kano State from taking any action or further action in the implementation of the Kano State Emirs and Deposition Amendment Law 2019, which was passed by the State House of Assembly or from doing anything that will adversely affect the kingmakers or the Emir of Kano, pending the hearing of the Interlocutory Application for Injunction. The governor disregarded the ruling and coronated the emirs.

Kano Emirate’s kingmakers – Madaki, Makama, Sarkin Dawaki Mai Tuta and Sarkin Ban Kano have argued that there is a serious risk of irreparable damage that will be done to the people of Kano if the Emirate is dismantled. They have pointed out the idea that the House of Assembly could establish new emirates is based on a fundamental misconception that the Kano Emirate itself is a creature of statute.

Similar thing happened in 1981 when 4 additional Emirates were created only to be scrapped in 1983!
