The Kano State Governor, Abba Yusuf, has signed the state’s Emirates Council Bill 2024, which created three new second-class emirates in the state.
PREMIUM TIMES reports that the governor assented to the bill a few hours after the state House of Assembly passed it on Tuesday.
The new law reversed the dissolution of the three emirates but downgraded their emirs to second-class status.
In a statement, the governor’s spokesperson, Sunusi Bature, said the governor assented to the bill at 5:26 p.m. at the Council Chamber of the Government House.
