The Kano State Government has assured residents that the ongoing issues surrounding the emirate tussle will soon be resolved amicably.
Addressing journalists on Thursday, the Commissioner for Information and Internal Affairs, Ibrahim Waiya, said the state had already put measures in place to restore lasting peace and ility. He emphasized that the government was committed to dialogue with all stakeholders to ensure the matter does not continue to generate tension or disrupt governance.
“The administration’s approach is guided by respect for the rule of law, traditional institutions, and the collective interests of the people of Kano State,” Waiya said.
On the political front, the commissioner commented on Governor Abba Yusuf’s recent defection to the All Progressives Congress (APC), describing it as a move that would bring significant benefits to the state. Waiya said the c alignment with the federal government would attract more interventions, projects, and development initiatives, particularly in critical sectors such as infrastructure, health, education, and social welfare.
“The defection opens more doors for Kano. With stronger collaboration with the Federal Government, we expect more support in critical sectors,” he added.
Regarding the political future of the deputy governor, who has not joined the APC, Waiya stated that the decision was entirely personal, leaving the choice to either continue working within the new political arrangement or take a different path.
Waiya reassured Kano residents that the state government remained focused on governance, unity, and development, urging calm and support as efforts continue to address outstanding issues. He reaffirmed the administration’s commitment to transparency, peace, and inclusive governance, assuring that the interests of the people of Kano would always remain paramount.
Im not convinced about the benefits of the Governors APC defection. It seems more like a political move than a genuine resolution.
Im not convinced the governors defection benefits the emirate dispute. Seems like a political move rather than a genuine resolution.
Why should a political defection overshadow resolving a traditional dispute? Priorities seem skewed in Kanos governance.
Im not convinced that the governors APC defection will truly benefit Kano. Lets see how this plays out. #Politics #KanoEmirateDispute
I think the Emirate dispute should be settled without political influence. Lets focus on unity and progress for all.
I dont understand why the Emirate dispute is being linked to the governors APC defection. Seems like a stretch to me.
Hmm, do you think the governors defection really benefits the people, or is it just political maneuvering? Curious to hear your thoughts!
Im not convinced that the governors defection will truly benefit the people. Politics can be messy, lets wait and see.
I dont buy it! How can switching parties resolve a longstanding dispute? Seems like a political move, not a genuine resolution.
