Kano Emirship Stool: Sanusi returns to Palace amid court injunction

It was a moment of jubilation yesterday in Kano State yesterday as Governor Abba Kabir Yusuf officially issued Muhammadu Sanusi II with a letter of appointment affirming him as the 16th Fulani Emir of Ibrahim Dabo clan.

The African House at the Kano State Government House, venue of the event, was filled with personalities including members of diplomatic corps, traditional and religious rulers, government functionaries and well wishers, drawn from far and near, who came to witness the historic moment.

While congratulating Sanusi for his return, Yusuf reminded the new emir of the enormous challenges before him, stressing that the credibility and proven integrity of the former CBN governor to deliver on people’s high expectations were not in doubt. However, Yusuf argued that the injunction was granted after action had been completed, wondering how a competent court would grant injunction under questionable circumstances.

Sanusi reminded Yusuf that he has repeated the second history of reinstatement of an emir in Northern Nigeria after the first episode that occurred about 1,000 years ago. In 2019, he was alleged to have involved himself in the general election by galvanising resources to ensure the victory of Kwankwaso’s candidate against Ganduje.
