The Kano State House of Assembly has adopted a motion to recall the state’s emirate council amendment bill.
This was sequel to deliberations on the floor of the house during the plenary session presided over by the Speaker, Jibril Isma’il.
In a motion of Urgent Public Importance, moved by the Majority Leader, Lawan Hussaini, he urged the house to support the motion to move the state forward.
The motion was seconded by the Member representing Dawakin Kudu, Shu’aibu Rabi’u.
It could be recalled that in 2019, the Kano State House of Assembly approved the creation of four additional emirate councils, bringing the number of first-class emirs in the state to five.
In September 2020, the Kano House of Assembly passed the Emirate Council Amendment Bill 2020, which made provisions for the Emir of Kano to serve as the Chairman of the Council of Chiefs, putting the issue of rotation to an end.
