Many state governors and ministers have converged on the palace of the Emir of Kano to formalise wedding plans of President Muhammadu Buhar’s son, Yusuf.
The wedding proper is billed to hold between August and September, according to sources close to the President’s family.
Yusuf is said to be engaged to a daughter of the Emir of Bichi and the emir is the younger brother of the Emir of Kano, who is hosting the delegation from the President.
The Kano delegation led by Governor Abubakar Badaru of Jigawa State arrived at the Emir of Kano’s palace on Sunday for the wedding plans, according to a report by Daily Trust.
Some members of the first family are also said to be at the palace for the wedding plans.
The bride to be, Zara Nasir Ado Bayero, is a 19-year-old graduate of Brighton University, UK.
Zara, who studied Architecture, is the second daughter and third child of the Emir of Bichi.
Her father is the fourth child of late Emir of Kano, Alhaji Ado Bayero.
He was the district head of Fagge, Tarauni and Nassarawa Local Government Area before he was appointed a first-class monarch by the administration of Governor Abdullahi Ganduje.
Her mother, Farida Imam, is the daughter of famous Kano educationist, Malam Abubakar Imam (Imamu Galandanci), a former Executive Director at Afribank Plc.
