There was a protest in Kano yesterday metropolis yesterday
over the creation of four new emirates in the state. Placards-carrying
protesters, under the auspices of Kano First Forum, expressed dissatisfaction
with the development.
Addressing newsmen during the protest, the spokesperson of
the group Dr Yusuf Ishaq Rabi’u, said the people of the state were in dare need
of improved healthcare delivery system, good schools and improved
infrastructure, not additional Emirates.
“It is very important to understand that there is a
difference between the Emirate and an emir. It is wrong to treat both as same.
In regard to this issue, the Kano State House of Assembly
has not been fair to the people of Kano State and the state as there are more
pressing issues that need their urgent attention as such: education, water
supply, health, and the dying socio-economic status of the state.
“It is with a heavy heart that we, the Kano First Forum,
staged this protest to show our dissatisfaction over the recent issue tabled
between the State House of Assembly and Kano State Government,” he said.
