The outgoing Governor of Kano State, Abdullahi Ganduje, has insisted that the emirates created by his administration have come to stay.
Ganduje said he would keep praying that the emirates are not destroyed by evil after leaving office.
The governor’s statement came days after the New Nigerian Peoples Party, NNPP, Presidential candidate, Rabiu Kwankwaso, said the incoming government of Abba Yusuf would review the balkanisation of the Kano emirate.
Ganduje had split the Kano emirates into five after he dethroned the then Emir of Kano, Muhammadu Sanusi.
The governor had said the four new emirates are a symbol of unity, progress, and well-being.
However, speaking during Monday’s Workers’ Day celebrations in Kano, Ganduje said the emirates were created for the people.
According to Ganduje: “Any of you that visits the headquarters of these new emirates will believe me that we have brought development to these places.
“Even if we are not in government, we are praying and we will keep praying for God to protect these emirates from all evils. I thank you all.
