The Emir of Zazzau supports a proposed 100% increase in the salaries and allowances of traditional rulers in Kaduna State. In the reports, he backs the plan as a “welcome relief” for the traditional institution.
The initiative is linked to discussions within the Kaduna State Council of Chiefs. One outlet reports that the Emir is backing the proposal alongside the council chairman, Ambassador Ahmed Bamalli, who describes the current remuneration as inadequate and frames the adjustment as supportive of the traditional rulers’ role.
Across the two sources, the main details align: the increase is set at 100% and applies to both salaries and allowances of Kaduna’s traditional rulers. The coverage emphasizes the supportive stance of the Emir of Zazzau and the Council of Chiefs leadership, with no major differences in reported figures or framing beyond wording.
