Already, invitation cards have been sent out to guests who are expected to attend the function while the Emirate council is putting finishing touches to preparations for the event.
The Emir has declared in different fora that under the present administration of President Muhammadu Buhari, Daura has seen monumental infrastructural developments.
One of which is the University of Transport, which the minister was instrumental in the choice of its location.
The title “Dan Amana” could be literally translated as a trustee or a trustworthy person, perhaps considering his relationship with the President.
