The Emir of Ilorin and Chairman, Kwara State Council of Chiefs, Alhaji Ibrahim Sulu- Gambari had constituted the Ilorin Emirate Durbar Committee.

With the committee, the annual durbar festival would henceforth be held on the second day of Eid-el-Kabir festivities at the frontage of the Emir's Palace.

The monarch noted that the durbar ceremony was an annual event but the committee was only put in place to accord it a befitting structure and make it attract global attention and participation. Sulu - Gambari, who assured the committee of his support for the success of the annual ceremony, urged members to work assiduously for a hitch free durbar event.

The traditional ruler listed the Durbar Committee members to include Engineer Suleiman Yahaya Alapansanpa (chairman), the Director Centre for Ilorin Studies, University of Ilorin, Dr Ibrahim AJawondo (secretary), Justice Idrees Haroon and Justice Solihu Muhammad.

Also inaugurated alongside the main committee of the ceremony were sub-committees.
