Kano State High Court Sacks New Emirs, Dissolves Four Emirates

In a shocking turn of events, the Kano State High Court has nullified the appointment of four new emirs in the state, including the newly appointed Emir of Kano, Aminu Ado Bayero.

The court also sacked the Emirs of Bichi, Rano, Karaye, and Gaya, dissolving the four emirates that were created by the Kano State Government in 2020.

The court's decision is a major blow to the Kano State Government, which had appointed the new emirs in a bid to decentralize the traditional institution and promote development in the state.

The court's ruling is based on a suit filed by the Emir of Kano, Muhammad Sanusi II, who challenged the creation of the new emirates and the appointment of new emirs.

The Emir of Kano had argued that the creation of the new emirates was unconstitutional and that the state government had no power to create new emirates without the consent of the traditional institution.

The court's decision is expected to have far-reaching implications for the traditional institution in Kano State and may lead to a review of the state government's policies on traditional institutions.
