The Emir of Daura, Faruk Umar Faruk, has married a 20-year-old bride, Aisha Iro Maikano, on Saturday.

Born in 1921, the nonagenarian manther tied the knot in a low key marriage ceremony in Katsina with the nubile young lady after a brief courtship.

Report says that the monarch paid N1million Naira dowry to the bride, who is the daughter of Fagacin Katsina, Iro Maikano.

Sources said the serial polygamist has married not less than four young wives in the last six years.

Sources close to the royal family said the emir divorced all his three wives recently, and planned to pick a new four set of wives. “The plan was that the emir wanted to marry at least three wives at one go,” said a family source.
