Kano state House of Assembly has ordered for the immediate removal of Kwankwasiyya inscriptions from government buildings in Kano metropolis and in all the 44 local government areas.
The directive followed a resolution adopted on the floor of the House by the member representing Kano Municipal Constituency, Alhaji Baffa Babba Dan- Agundi, and unanimously supported by all the 40 members of the House.
All the 44 local government areas affected by the directive had been urged to comply with the directive within a period of one month, a development that heightened the suspicion of many pundits that the animosity between Governor Abdullahi Umar Ganduje and his predecessor had taken a new dimension.
The House had, in a similar vein, ordered for the removed inscriptions to be replaced with the names of some prominent citizens of Kano, like the Kano-based business mogul and Islamic scholar, Shiekh Isiyaku Rabiu, Shiekh Nasir Kabara and Shiekh Jaafar Mahmud Adam.
