Amid Health Rumours, Sultan of Sokoto Bestows Traditional Title on Professor Pantami

In a remarkable appearance after recent rumors regarding his health, the Sultan of Sokoto, Alhaji Muhammad Sa’ad Abubakar, bestowed upon Professor Isa Ali Pantami the esteemed traditional title of Majidadin Daular Usmaniya.

The rumors had prompted responses from notable figures, including Dr. Muhammadu Jabbi Kilgori, a senior counselor in the Sultanate Council, and the Muslim Public Affairs Centre (MPAC), who both emphatically denied reports of the Sultan’s passing.

The Sultan’s public engagement on November 2, 2024, at the 11th Shaykh Usman ibn Fodiyo Annual Lecture was therefore met with relief and joy. At the event, Professor Pantami delivered a keynote address titled “Unity as a Panacea to Insecurity and Poverty: Lessons from the Sokoto Jihad Leaders.”

Following the lecture, the Sultanate Council, led by His Eminence Alhaji Muhammad Sa’ad Abubakar, honored Professor Pantami with the title of Majidadin Daular Usmaniya in recognition of his remarkable contributions as a religious and political leader.

The Sultan highlighted Professor Pantami’s active participation in initiatives that align with the Sultanate’s vision of progress and societal welfare.

The Sultan remarked that Professor Pantami has supported the Sultanate through thick and thin for nearly two decades.

“His outstanding contributions to education, public service, and community development in Nigeria are commendable,” he stated.

Representing the Executive Governor of Sokoto State, Dr. Ahmed Aliyu, the Secretary to the Sokoto State Government, Alhaji Bello Sifawa, extended gratitude to the Sultanate Council for honoring Professor Pantami.
