President Muhammadu Buhari felicitates with the foremost traditional ruler, describing him as “a symbol of peace, stability, unity and development of his people.”
The president noted that the 18th Emir of Zazzau Emirate, and Chairman of the Kaduna State Council of Traditional Rulers, “remains not only a shining light and custodian of the culture of the emirate, but also a revered monarch whose wise counsel to governments at the state and federal levels over the decades, remain invaluable and enduring.”
