The Governor of Jigawa State, Muhammad Badaru Abubakar, has approved the appointment of Haneem Muhammad Sanusi as the new Emir of Dutse.
Governor Badaru’s approval was sequel to the recommendation of the Dutse Emirates kingmakers.
According to a statement made available to journalists on Sunday, three persons contested for the royal seat. However, the seven kingmakers had unanimously voted for Sanusi’s emergence.
The new Emir succeeded his father, Nuhu Muhammad Sunusi who passed away in an Abuja hospital last week.
