It is not easy to step into the shoes of Emir Shehu Idris – New Emir of Zazzau
The New Emir of Zazzau HRH Ahmed Nuhu Bamalli has promised to build on the foundation laid by his predecessors.
The New Emir who was speaking in his maiden media interaction on Thursday in Zaria said the former emir late Dr. Shehu Idris spent 45 years on the throne and achieved a lot and as a well-meaning successor, he would like to build on such achievements.
Bamali said the late emir has strengthened the structure of the emirate.
“It is not easy to step into the shoes of somebody whose personality was larger than life. It going to be a gradual process. In Sha Allah, we will accomplish the task.
”I also call on all my co-contestants to come together so that we can continue to build on the foundation laid down by our predecessors. I do not believe in the winner takes all. I believe in teamwork,” he said

The New royal father said that he does not have any reason to neglect the two other leading families because they were his family as well.
”My grandmother is from the Bare-bari dynasty, therefore they are my family. I feel very comfortable whenever I am with them because they treat me with dignity.
“My wife for the past 30 years, is also a daughter of the late emir. As you can see, I don’t have any reason to alienate anybody.
“I also told the council members that I am ready to tag along with everybody and the foundation laid by the late emir provided people to work in line with the game.
“For the palace staff members, I do not intend to make life unbearable for anybody; the legacy of our family is to bring people close to us not to send them away,’’ he said.
