Zazzau Chief Resigns As Discontent Greets New Monarch
The appointment of Alhaji Nuhu Bamali as the new Emir of Zazzau is brewing discontent among title-holders and others in the emirate, as one of them tendered his letter of resignation.
A member of the Zazzau Emirate Council, Aminu Yakubu-Wambai, decided to resign his position as Wakilin Raya Kasar Zazzau, hours after the appointment of the new monarch.
On Wednesday, Governor Nasir el-Rufai had appointed Bamalli as the new emir to succeed Dr. Shehu Idris who died recently after 45 years on the throne.
Wambai was a permanent emirate council member representing Kaduna South Council before he resigned yesterday from the position he had held for 19 years.
