The Emir of Kano Muhammadu Sanusi the second has advocated for the rights of the girl-child to education.
The first class traditional ruler made the call while addressing the people of the state, shortly after he led the Eid prayer at the Kofar Mata Central Eid ground in Kano. He urged political leaders at all levels to give priority to female education as they did with their male counterparts.
He underscored the need for Nigerians to also continue to pray for peace and progress of the state and the country at large.
The Monarch also urged Muslims to fear God in all their activities, reminding them that each and every one of them must give account of his or her deeds hereafter.
Besides, the Emir called on the people of the state to continue to pray against banditry, kidnapping and other vices. He admonished Kano people to support each other and work as a team for the overall development of the state.
