Muhammad Haliru Dantoro Kitoro IV Emerges New Emir Of Borgu by saint047(m): 5:08am On Nov 11, 2015 |
Following the submission of the report of
the kingmakers, the Niger State governor,
Alhaji Abubakar Sani Bello, has approved
the appointment of Alhaji Muhammad
Sani Haliru Dantoro, Kitoro IV, former
Marafan Borgu, as the 17th Emir of
Borgu.
The new emir is the eldest son of the late
emir of Borgu and was the choice of the
kingmakers after garnering the highest
votes of the kingmakers in a selection
process that took place at the Borgu local
government secretariat, New Bussa, Niger
State, last Saturday.
LEADERSHIP had reported yesterday that
following the report of the kingmakers
submitted to the governor by the Wazirin
of Borgu, Alhaji Abdullahi Nuhu Sa’ad on
Monday, the governor will soon announce
the name of the new emir.
A statement by the Secretary to the
Government of Niger State, Alhaji Shehu
Umar Danyaya, yesterday disclosed that
the emergence of Alhaji Muhammad Sani
Haliru Dantoro came on the heels of the
demise of Senator Haliru Dantoro, Kitoro
III.
The statement added that “the
appointment of the new Emir followed the
decision of the Kingmakers of Borgu
Emirate Council as all the kingmakers
voted in support of the former Marafan
Borgu, Alhaji Muhammad Sani Haliru
Dantoro, who was among the contestants
to the stool from the ruling house of
Gbemusu that indicated interest in the
vacant position.”
According to the SSG, the new emir of
Borgu is expected to bring his knowledge
and wealth of experience to bear on the
performance of his new assignment by
improving on the achievements of his
predecessor.
The new Emir of Borgu was born on
February 2, 1966 at Old Bussa, and
graduated from Ahmadu Bello University,
Zaria, where he studied law and was
called to the Nigerian Bar.
Apart from his private law practice, the
new emir, like his late father, had a stint
in politics before quitting the stage to
focus on his private law practice and
business.
He is married to two wives and they have
seven children.
The Niger State governor is expected to
officially present the new emir with his
letter of appointment and he will formally
assume office today in the presence of
key members of the Borgu Emirate
Traditional Council as well as the
traditional council of the state led by the
Etsu Nupe, Alhaji Yahaya Abubakar
The 16th Emir of Borgu Kingdom, the late
Senator Haliru Dantoro, Kitoro III, died on
October 30 this year in a German hospital
after a protracted illness. http://leadership.ng/news/473588/muhammad- haliru-dantoro-kitoro-iv-emerges-new-emir-of- borgu
