<\/p>\nThe creation of more emirates will whittle down the influence of the Emir of Kano, Sanusi Muhammadu Sanusi.<\/p>\n
Speaking at a media briefing ahead of the 136th state executive council meeting, Ganduje said he would sign it into law immediately he received it.<\/p>\n
\u201cWe heard about a bill sent to the state house of assembly, requesting them to make a law for the creation of four more emirs in Kano.<\/p>\n
\u201cWe believe the petitioners did it in good faith. And they want the development of the state. I hope the legislative arm would work on it and forward to me for assent of which I am ready to sign into law without any waste of time.<\/p>\n
\u201cThat is the popular wish of our people. This will also go a long way in hastening growth and development for the state,\u201d the Governor said.<\/p>\n
Ganduje insisted the idea had been on for many years, adding \u201cWith the creation of more Emirates, all sectors of the society would improve.<\/p>\n
\u201cIt will also lead to more concentration on our health, education and other equally important sectors of the society. That is why I said there will be no waste of time in signing the bill into law.<\/p>\n
\u201cThat is the popular wish of our people. The people of Kano state. This will also go a long way in hastening growth and development for the state.<\/p>\n
\u201cThe efforts didn\u2019t get through many years ago but now we are happy to see that the idea would come into fruition.\u201d\n<\/p><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
