In a significant development, Kano State Governor Abba Yusuf met with National Security Adviser Malam Nuhu Ribadu on Thursday at the Office of the NSA in Abuja. The meeting, which lasted over an hour, was prompted by the recent turmoil in Kano following the dissolution of five emirates by the state House of Assembly and the subsequent reinstatement of Muhammad Sanusi as the Emir of Kano.
Despite the ongoing emirate crisis, Emir Sanusi on Thursday approved the appointment of Hamisu Sani as the new Ward Head for Kofar Mazugal in Dala Local Government area. The Emir urged the new ward head to promote peaceful coexistence among his subjects and contribute to the state’s development.
According to a statement by the governor’s spokesperson, Dawakin Tofa, the meeting between Yusuf and Ribadu focused on state and national security issues.
