Bichi Emirate, Traditional palace in Bichi Local Government Area, Nigeria.

The palace serves as the headquarters of the Bichi Emirate, situated along the A9 highway in northern Kano State, Nigeria.

The Bichi Emirate was established in 2019 when the Kano State Government divided the traditional Kano kingdom into five separate administrative regions.

The palace represents the center of traditional authority where the Emir manages local affairs and maintains connections with the Danejawa clan of the Fulani tribe.

The palace administration oversees nine local government areas including Bichi, Bagwai, Shanono, Tsanyawa, Kunchi, Makoda, Dambatta, Dawakin Tofa, and Tofa.

In May 2024, the palace faced administrative changes when Kano State abolished the separate emirates, reverting to a single unified Kano Emirate structure.
