Buhari’s Son Set To Become Monarch In Katsina

Yusuf, son of President Muhammadu Buhari, is set to become the District Head of Kwasarawa, Duara in Katsina State.

Ezenwoko’s Blog reports that Yusuf Buhari will be turbaned as Talban Daura by the Emir of Daura, Alhaji Umar Farouk, today (Saturday) in Daura.

Personalities expected to be at the ceremony are Senate President Ahmad Lawan, Governor Aminu Bello Masari of Katsina, Senators Yusuf Abubakar Yusuf, Mohammed Sani Musa, and Bello Mandiya.

The President and his wife, Aisha Buhari will not be attending the coronation due to the ongoing summit in Turkey.

Recall that the Emir of Daura had said that Yusuf was given a title in order to reciprocate all the good things President Buhari has done for his home town.

The monarch added that another reason was to prevent him from strolling around Abuja and Yola when the president’s tenure is over.

He had said: “We are giving him this title to reciprocate all the good things his father, President Muhammadu Buhari, has done to Daura.

“Even if you don’t like Buhari, you know that Daura of today is different from what it were six years ago. So, to reciprocate this gesture, we gave him the title of Talban Daura, which he gave to his only son, Yusuf. This will prevent him from strolling around Yola (his mother’s hometown) and Abuja.

“From University of Transport Technology to Federal Polytechnic, to good roads networks and many other development projects, Daura is today better than some states in the country, development-wise.

“We have many sons in Daura who excelled have excelled, but do not want to be associated with it, so Buhari stands out among them.”
