The household of the Emir of Bichi, Alhaji Nasir Ado Bayero, has denied claims that the upcoming wedding ceremony of their daughter, Maryam Nasir Ado Bayero, to Jibrin Barau Jibrin, the son of the Deputy President of the Senate, was relocated from Kano to Abuja because of political tensions surrounding the Tax Reform Payments.
In an announcement signed by Alhaji Aminu Babba Dan Agundi, Sarkin Dawaki Babba of Kano and Chairman of the bride’s household organizing committee, the household defined that the choice to maneuver the marriage, slated for Friday, December 13, 2024, was for logistical causes.
“The choice to vary the placement of our daughter’s wedding ceremony from Kano to Abuja was purely and solely the choice of our households and never that of our daughter’s would-be husband’s household—the Deputy President of the Senate,” the assertion learn.
Alhaji Dan Agundi said that the bride’s household is answerable for deciding on the marriage venue. He denied any connection between the relocation and the Tax Reform Payments.
“The relocation of the marriage venue has no reference to points generated by the Tax Reform Payments,” he mentioned, including that the transfer to Abuja was made weeks in the past to accommodate dignitaries touring from throughout the nation and overseas.
The household urged the general public to keep away from politicizing the wedding, which they described as a major spiritual and cultural occasion.
Maryam Nasir Ado Bayero is ready to marry Jibrin Barau Jibrin, the son of Senator Barau Jibrin, who’s the Deputy President of the Senate.
