SPECTACLE, FESTIVITY IN KANO, "A CITY OF FIRSTS," AS OSINBAJO HEADLINES COLOURFUL DURBAR


Not only is the Kano Durbar festival a fantastic spectacle from a city of firsts, but it is also a symbol of Nigeria's diverse and beautiful cultures.


Vice President Yemi Osinbajo, SAN, stated this Tuesday evening at the Royal Durbar organised by the Kano Emirate Council to commemorate the 2022 Eid-el-Fitr celebrations in the ancient city. The Vice President who was the Special Guest at the event spoke to reporters at the end of the Durbar before heading for a courtesy call to the Emir of Kano, His Royal Majesty, Aminu Ado Bayero.


Prof. Osinbajo who commended the organisers and participants at the Durbar (Hawan Daushe) said, "the Durbar is an incredible spectacle, so much colour, so much pomp and pageantry, it is very typical of Kano."


He added that Kano, the "city of Dabo, the city of the groundnut pyramid is, indeed, "a city of firsts".


The turnout to welcome the VP was also a spectacle. From the airport to the streets, and all the way to the Emir's palace and the venue of the Durbar, the people of Kano trooped out in large numbers cheering Prof. Osinbajo all over the ancient city.


The Vice President, who had been received at the airport by the Kano State Governor, Umar Ganduje, among many other state government officials, later paid a courtesy call to the Emir of Kano, Aminu Ado Bayero.


Praying for the prosperity of the city and its inhabitants, the Vice President thanked the Emir for his hospitality and warm welcome.


Earlier in his remarks, the Emir of Kano, His Royal Highness Aminu Ado Bayero, acknowledged the contributions of the VP to the development of the country and prayed God grants him success in all his future aspirations.


According to the Emir, "I acknowledge the contributions of the VP to the development of the country at different times, even as Commissioner of Justice. I pray that whatever his future aspiration is, may Allah grant him success."


The Emir then thanked the VP for attending the event and extended his greetings to President Muhammadu Buhari.
