“We will be made to account for our deeds and we will also be judged by posterity for being at the helm of affairs and what we did whether it is good or bad, will be the legacy we will all leave behind,” he said.

Mr Sanusi, however, commended the lawmakers for the gesture, disclosed that the emirate council, in collaboration with the state government would soon submit a bill to the assembly on marriage, compulsory education and street begging.
