Emir advocates constitutional role for traditional rulers
The Emir of Bauchi, Rilwanu Adamu, has urged the Conference of Speakers of the State Houses of Assembly to support the call of traditional rulers for a role in the Nigerian Constitution.
Mr Adamu spoke when the speakers paid him a courtesy visit on Saturday in Bauchi.
He said traditional leaders did not belong to any political party, pointing out that they enjoyed working with the executive and the legislative arms of government.
The emir commended the good working relationship between the Bauchi State Government and the House of Assembly.
He also praised Governor Bala Mohammed of Bauchi State for his developmental projects and urged the Conference of Speakers to come up with very robust ideas that would move the country forward.
