Governor Abdullahi Ganduje of Kano state has rejected the ruling of Justice Usman Na’Abba of the Kano High Court, which sacked four emirs he recently appointed.
According to the judge, the appointment of the four new first-class emirs and the law creating them did not follow due process.
However, Ganduje in a statement issued by the Commissioner for Information, Mallam Muhammad Garba, said the ruling of the court on the creation of four new emirates would be properly studied, to ascertain what actions to take next, as the emirates have come to stay.
The statement said, “Despite the ruling, the government still recognises them as first class emirs and will continue dealing with them as such.
“The state government therefore advises people to be calm, law-abiding and await further action.”
