The ruling Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) has congratulated the new Emir of
Kano, Mallam Sanusi Lamido Sanusi on his inauguration, saying it will not play
politics with the revered traditional institution.
PDP National Publicity Secretary, Olisa Metuh in a statement on Monday said the party “has an unflinching reverence for the traditional institution and in that regard extends the same reverence it had for the late Emir to Mallam Sanusi Lamido Sanusi.”
It however said it expects the new Emir to remain non-partisan deserving of the exalted and revered office, like his predecessor.
“The PDP holds the office of the Emir of Kano in very high esteem. We therefore give the new Emir our prayers and urge him to ensure that the sanctity of the throne and the traditional institution are absolutely guarded and preserved.
“We are very much aware that his status has changed and we pray the Almighty Allah, who alone confers authority, to grant him the wisdom and good health to lead his people to peace and prosperity.
Calling for calm in Kano, the PDP urged the new Emir to take steps to unite his people and note that he is not the emir of any political party but that of the entire people of the Kano Emirate.
Signed:
Olisa Metuh

If Olisa Metuh like let PDP not congratulate our Emir. No one but God can select a ruler. For the presidency to be involved in such issues is a shame. they have other things to bother about. please bring back our girls is enough for PDP to worry about.
ReplyDeleteHow do u know pdp was involved? Everything u ppl must call pdp.
ReplyDeleteMy advice to u Mr Victor Ofuchi ; I hv seen ur comment severally n i think this is d right time to advice u to desist from abusing ur leader according to first speaker here, he said a touching words that it is only God that chooses a leader be it appointee,selection or true election it is God. And i think it is time u stop abusing ur president & calling him all sort of names; my bible encourage us to nt curse bt rather pray fo our leaders : so i resign hitherto by telling u to follow d bold step which is prayers. Mr Truth.
