The Kano State House of Assembly however passed the Kano Emirates Council Law (Repeal Bill) 2024, effectively abolishing the establishment of five new emirates in the state today.
With this, all offices created under the repealed law have been dissolved, and district heads appointed or elevated under the previous legislation are to revert to their former positions.
It is expected that the then Emir Sanusi II will be reinstalled as the Emir of Kano following the state assembly’s decision to recognise only one first class emir in the state.
