The 16th Emir of Kano, Muhammadu Sanusi II, has vowed that the Kano Emirate Council will stop at nothing to ensure that the fight against drug abuse is won.
Emir Sanusi made this vow at a three-day stakeholders’
summit on drug abuse organised by the Kano Reformative Centre, Kiru.
The monarch stressed that the council, as custodian of
culture and conscience, will continue to lend its voice and leadership in support
of the fight against drug abuse, noting that no single institution can win the
battle alone.
He reiterated the need to checkmate drug abuse, stressing
that when a young person is lost to drugs, a lineage, a dream and a future are
destroyed.
“As Royal Father of the Day, I reaffirm the unwavering
support of the Kano Emirate Council. We will continue to lend our voice, our
platforms, and our leadership to ensure that this fight is won and that the
youth of Kano find purpose, discipline, and dignity once again.
“Drug abuse is not merely a social problem; it is a direct
assault on the dignity of our society, the strength of our families, and the
moral fabric that has sustained Kano for centuries.
“When a young person is lost to drugs, a lineage, a dream,
and a future are destroyed. As custodians of our culture and conscience, we
must rise with a collective resolve that is firm, compassionate, and
unyielding.
“Our theme, ‘Strength in unity,’ is timely and profound. No
single institution can win this battle alone. It requires a fusion of security
intelligence, public enlightenment, community discipline, medical support,
religious guidance, and the revival of our traditional values that once made
drug abuse unthinkable in our communities,” he said.
