myself. l was appointed Danmajen Kano I 1990 by my late dad; I later became
Danburan Kano, then Turakin Kano to Sarkin Tsakar Gida and finally to Wamban
Kano it may interest you to know that l have never gone to anybody asking for
any of these appointments.
“Again from the time my
late dad became emir to the time he died, he saw a lot of changes and he
accepted them in good faith. Historically the Police, Prisons, customs, Judges
and schools were initially under the emirates, but as time went by, they
separated and our forefathers had accept the changes.

“For me, having five Emirs
in Kano will not affect its development. lf the Emirs have the concern about
development of Kano, they can work together and move the state forward. There
is no difference between all of us” he noted.
While commenting on the
relationship with the Emir of Kano, Muhammadu Sanusi ll, Bayero noted
that,”Sanusi is my brother. He has respect for me and I have respect for him. l
am from a royal family. When he was appointed Emir, I was among the first set
of people that paid homage to him and l gave him my support and l will continue
to support him.
“So, because I am appointed
Emir, l don’t think he will not support me to succeed in all my undertakings. l
have no grudges against him whatsoever and I don’t think he has any against me,
he stressed.
