The Kano State House of Assembly has officially passed a bill dissolving all five emirate councils in the state. This decision followed deliberations on the floor of the house during a plenary session held on Thursday.
The significant move came as the Kano State Emirate Council Amendment Bill was considered and passed after successfully scaling its second and third readings.
The Deputy Speaker, Alhaji Muhammad Bello Butu Butu, articulated the rationale behind the dissolution.
He emphasized that repealing the law that divided the Kano Emirate into five separate entities would help “revive the lost glory of Kano.” He further stated that The division of Kano Emirate into five reduced the capacity and dignity of the state at the national level.
