The Emir of Kano, His Royal Highness, Muhammadu Sanusi II has been appointed as one of the new Advocates for Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).
This is coming less than 24 hours after Kano State Governor, Abdullahi Ganduje announced the creation of four new Emirates in the state, thereby reducing the powers of Emir Sanusi.
United Nations (UN) Secretary General, António Guterres announced the appointment in a statement issued on Thursday in New York.
