Zamfara:Traditional leaders pull out of Shinkafi emirate council over turbaning of Femi Fani-Kayode
have thrown in the towels, saying that they were not consulted by the Emir before conferring a traditional title to former Minister of Aviation, Chief Femi Fani Kayode.
The traditional leaders said they held a meeting in Gusau, the state capital and unanimously agreed that if the Emir wishes to hand over the entire Shinkafi Local Government Area to the Yoruba’s, he can do so, saying that they can equally fight back. They, however, cautioned the Emir to as a matter of necessity take the Path of honor by resigning his appointment instead of being pushed away disgracefully.” We are not going to tolerate all this nonsense from the Emir because we are operating a democratic system in the country where everybody can voice out his or her own opinion.”
