NEF Raises Concern Over Removal Of Kano Emirs, Calls For Calm
Share on FacebookShare on Twitter

The Northern Elders Forum (NEF) has expressed concern over the removal of five Kano Emirs by Governor Abba Yusuf on Thursday.

The NEF in a press release by its Director of publicity and advocacy, Abdul-Azeez Suleiman, forum warned that the crisis in the Kano emirate has significantly raised public tensions and concerns.

It, however, urged the Kano state government and other politicians involved to handle the situation with utmost care and professionalism to prevent further escalation.

The NEF, however, blamed the previous administration for creating new emirates, saying such action threatens the unity and cohesion of the traditional structure and undermines the centuries-old customs, values, and traditions that are the bedrock of Nigerian society.

“It is important for all parties involved to approach this matter with the utmost care and professionalism, keeping in mind the potential consequences of their actions.

“Rash decisions and inflammatory statements can only serve to worsen the situation and jeopardize the peace and stability of the state,” NEF stated.

The Forum also called on the public to remain calm and law-abiding, stressing that violence and unrest would only further divide the community and hinder peaceful resolution efforts.

The group emphasized the need for unity and mutual understanding during this crisis, noting that, the traditional institution in Nigeria has long faced challenges that have rendered it weak and ineffective.

NEF said : “Creation of multiple emirates in Kano is a deliberate attempt to weaken the authority of traditional rulers, making them more susceptible to political control and manipulation.

“The arbitrary enthronement and replacement of high-ranking traditional rulers in Kano, according to the NEF, undermine their authority and legitimacy.

Governor, Abba Kabir Yusuf, had Thursday, afternoon signed the new emirate council law.

The governor, flanked by his deputy, the Speaker of the State Assembly and other principal officers in the government signed the law at the Government House.(vitalnewsngr.com)
