Traditional Leaders pull out of Shinkafi Emirate Council over turbaning of Femi Fani-Kayode

Traditional leaders of the Shinkafi emirate council in Zamfara State have reportedly pulled out of the council after the turbaning of former minister of Aviation, Femi Fani Kayode.
According to those who withdrew from the council, the main problem remains that the Emir in question did not explain the contribution the former minister had made either in Shinkafi Local Government Area or Zamfara state or the entire country.

“We are demanding explanations from the Emir and without the explanations, there will be no peace in the emirate council,” they lamented.

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 further stressed that the state government should dethrone the Emir for the sake of peace in the emirate. 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.

The traditional leaders maintained that if the state government remains silent over this issue, then there will be problem in the emirate council and the Local Government Area in general.

They called on the Emir to as a matter of urgency withdraw the traditional title from Femi Fani-Kayode, else there will be nothing like Shinkafi emirate council.

  1. The emir should decide on what to do on the condition giving to in order to avoid another violent in the state.

  2. Different strokes to different folks. Me too wondered what FFK has done to the Emirate nay Emir to warrant such confinement of chieftancy title. The Emir has to explain to his people why he looked within and beyond Shinkafi Emirate on whom to bestow title and he found none but FFK. The poser is, can the Emir eat the humble pie and withdraw the title he had alreay given with funfare. Lets watch as the battle line has been drawn
