Governor Nasir El-Rufai of Kaduna State, has cancelled the
initial process for the appointment of a new Emir of Zazzau.
El-Rufai in a tweet on Wednesday said the cancellation was
due to the exclusion of two interested applicants.
The Governor tweeted, “Kingmakers of Zazzau Emirate are
currently engaged in a fresh process to recommend candidates for the office of
the 19th Fulani Emir of Zazzau.
“KDSG directed a new round of the selection process after
cancelling the initial process, which excluded two interested applicants,” he
added.
Recall that the kingmakers nominated three princes last
Thursday.
The rigorous exercise was witnessed by top government and
security officials El-Rufai himself dispatched.
Eleven princes from the four dynasties of Zazzau emirate had
declared their intention to succeed the late monarch, Shehu Idris.
They were Bashir Aminu (Iyan Zazzau), Aminu Shehu Idris
(Turakin Zazzau), Muhammadu Munir Ja’afaru (Yariman Zazzau), Ahmad Nuhu Bammali
(Magajin Garin Zazzau), Abdulkarim Aminu (Wanban Zazzau), Aminu Umaru Idris
(Dangaladiman Zazzau).
The rest were Bello Umaru Idris (Baraden Zazzau), Saidu àMailafiya (Ciroman Zazzau), Shitu Dikko (Dangaladiman Waziri Zazzau), Sambo Shehu Idris (Sarkin Kudun Zazzau), and Yusuf Shehu Idris (Sadaukin Zazzau).
