Recall that in 2019, the Kano State House of Assembly approved the creation of four additional emirate councils, bringing the number of First Class Emirs in the state to five.
In September 2020, the assembly passed the Emirate Councils Amendment Bill 2020 which made provisions for the Emir of Kano to serve as the chairman of the Council of Chiefs, putting the issue of rotation to an end.
The recall is amid calls for the return of the deposed 14th Emir of Kano, Muhammad Sanusi.
