Judge stated. "The ruling has implications beyond Kano State affecting all traditional rulers across Nigeria"

The 2024 Kano State Emirate Law, which disbanded the five Emirates, was recently overturned by the Federal High Court in Kano, as reported by the Guardian. This resulted in the restoration of Aminu Ado Bayero as the Emir of Kano. The prior acts of Governor Abba Kabir Yusuf are void as a result of this decision.

Justice Abdullahi Muhammad Liman emphasized the need to maintain the current situation until further legal proceedings are completed, directing all parties involved to comply with the court’s directive.

Following Justice Liman’s promotion to the Court of Appeal, the case now moves to Justice Simon Amobeda. This transition ensures continuity in the legal process, allowing for a thorough examination of the issues and a fair resolution based on legal principles and constitutional rights.
