Matane, in a congratulatory message felicitated with the Kagara Emirate on behalf of the Government and people of the State on this historic moment, added that the appointment of the new Emir, after serving the Emirate as Dan Majen Kagara, was no doubt well deserved.
The SSG enjoined the new Emir to continue to promote and consolidate on the legacies of unity, peace, and harmonious coexistence which the late Emir, Alhaji Salihu Tanko bequeathed to the Emirate.
He implored the new Emir of Kagara to build on the legacies of his forefathers by upholding the sanctity of the throne and the traditional institution.
Ahmed Matane appealed to the people of Kagara Emirate to rally support for the new Emir with a view to moving the Emirate forward.
