The Emir of Kano, Muhammadu
Sanusi II, on Thursday, accepted the appointment as Chairman Council of Emir’s
in Kano state but rejected a letter in circulation that he asked the governor
to make specific clarifications on the appointment.
In a letter dated 19th December
20, 2019, and signed on behalf of Kano emirate council secretary, Alhaji Abba
Yusuf, the acceptance of the position by the emir was categorically stated
thus: “Kindly inform His Excellency that His Highness, Sarkin Kano, had not
rejected his appointment as Chairman, Kano State Council of Chiefs. His
Highness accepts the appointment.
The letter continues, ” In doing
so, His Highness requests for further directives of His Excellency, the
Governor. For clarity, these directives may include, the appointment of other
members of the Council, the appointment of staff of the Council, provision of
accommodation for the Secretariat and other logistics, to make the Council
operational.”
The letter was addressed to the
secretary to the state government who was asked to “graciously convey to His
Excellency, the Governor, the renewed assurances of the highest esteem and
regard of His Highness, Sarkin Kano.
However, Chief of Staff to the
Emir Munir Sanusi Bayero told our Reporter that the letter in circulation
requesting the governor to make specific clarifications on the emirs
appointment was not from them.
“Yes we have accepted the
appointment in earnest and we have our unreserved loyalty to the Governor and
his government, but the purported letter in circulation does not come from us”,
Munir added.
The December 9th letter of Emir
Sanusi’s appointment was signed by the permanent secretary, special duties,
Musa Yahaya Bichi on behalf of the secretary to the state government.
