Kano govt gives reinstated Emir of Gaya appointment letter
The Kano state government has said that Alhaji Aliyu Abdulkadir Gaya has received his appointment letter to serve as the new Emir of Gaya Emirate.
This was contained in a statement by the governor’s spokesperson, Sanusi Bature Dawakin Tofa on Friday.
The Emir is the only one among the five deposed emirs to be reinstated by the Executive Governor of Kano State, Alhaji Abba Kabir Yusuf.
The new emirs are Alhaji Muhammad Mahraz Karaye, Emir of Karaye; Alhaji Muhammad Isa Umar, Emir of Rano; and Alhaji Aliyu Ibrahim Abdulkadir Gaya, Emir of Gaya.
The governor had congratulated the new emirs and urged them to promote culture, peace, and unity in their respective emirates.
This follows the assent of a new law by the Kano State House of Assembly, which allows for the creation of three second-class emirs of Gaya, Rano, and Karaye.

A statement issued by the Governor’s spokesperson, Sanusi Bature Dawakin Tofa, noted that the reinstatement of HRH Aliyu Ibrahim was based on merit and his commitment to serve the people of the Gaya Emirate, which comprises Gaya, Ajingi, and Albasu Local Government Areas.
“You may recall that the Emir of Gaya was the only one who accepted the will of Almighty Allah at the time when the five emirates were dissolved and all emirs deposed,” the statement read.
The Emir of Gaya arrived at the Kano Government House accompanied by all the kingmakers and other titleholders of the emirate.
The Kano House of Assembly repealed the law used by Abdullahi Ganduje, former governor of the state, to depose Sanusi in 2020 and divide
The repeal paved the way for the reinstatement of Sanusi and the dethronement of Bayero.
