The Emir of Karaye in Kano State, Alhaji Muhammad Mahraz, has tasked newly appointed district heads to continue to complement the efforts of security agencies to secure the lives and property of people in the emirate, the state and the country at large.
The emir made the call in his palace during the turbaning ceremony of Retired Assistant Inspector General of Police, Hadi Zarewa, as Dokajin Karaye and Alhaji Ahmed Garba Karaye, Assistant Controller General Federal Fire Service, as Tafidan Karaye.
The second class emir said as custodians of culture and traditions, the traditional institution must contribute to the provision of security of lives and property, asking the newly installed traditional rulers to continue to give their best in that regard.
“You were chosen for these roles because of your immense contribution to the growth and development of Karaye emirate. I am confident you will continue to support our people and secure the emirate from any threat.

“As traditional rulers, people’s welfare is our topmost responsibility and therefore must do everything within our powers to complement whatever the government is doing in this direction,’’ the emir said.
He said Kano State Governor Abba Kabir Yusuf approved their appointment based on their track records of service in various fields of human endeavour.
Karaye emirate is located along the border between Kano and Katsina states to the west and Kaduna State to the south. The two states are battling with bandits who have been attacking farming communities in remote areas.
