The Governor of Kano State, Abdullahi Ganduje, has declared that the new law which establishes the creation of four new Emirate Councils in the state has come to stay as it is irreversible.
Ganguje made the comments during a ceremony organized for the four newly appointed Emirs to express appreciation to the Governor, held at Sani Abacha Indoor Stadium, Kano on Saturday.
This is despite the fact that a suit has been filed, and an order reportedly asking all parties to maintain status issued by a Kano High Court on Friday, which granted an order restraining Governor Ganduje from taking any action to legitimize the new emirates of Rano, Bichi, Gaya, and Karaye.
During the occasion, Governor Ganduje, who charged the new Emirs to participate actively in the area of education, security, and agricultural development in the state, also revealed he had received information of planned protests against the appointment by some aggrieved individuals.
He, however, insisted that there is no going back because the law has gone through all the constitutionally required processes.
