Buhari Urges New Emir To Support War Against Terrorism

Former Military Head of State and Chieftain of the All Progressive Party (APC), Gen. Muhammadu Buhari (rtd) Monday urged the new emir of Kano, Mallam Sanusi Lamido Sanusi, to support the government in fighting terrorism and unrest in the country.

In a congratulatory letter to Sanusi on his appointment, Buhari also charged him to bring his wealth of experience in assisting the economic revival of the state and the country in general.

Governor Rabiu Musa Kwankwaso of Kano State, who spoke at the presentation of staff of office earlier today had also said that the new emir’s wealth of experience played a major role in his choice as emir.

Buhari, who noted that the new emir was chosen by God, urged him to fear God and treat all the people of Kano as those under his care and supervision.
