March 1968 - The Future Of The Emirs - Alhaji Nagogo

March 1968 - The Future Of The Emirs - Alhaji Nagogo, the Emir of Katsina, represents the past and the present, the traditional and the progressive. Two opposite conclusions are now being drawn about the fate and future of Northern Nigerian Royalty. The more articulate of these is that as a result of the rapid step-up of in the North, as well as the creation of six states there, the institution of emir-ship is doomed to lose its power, its grip on the people, its political, religious and leadership. The other view is that, on the contrary, these developments will further help to strengthen the political power and leadership of the northern ruling houses. (Photograph by Drum Photographer @ BAHA)
