Sanusi Lamido Sanusi II has been reinstated as the Emir of Kano.

This is according to an exclusive report by a National Daily, LEADERSHIP newspapers.

This decision came after the Kano State House of Assembly resolved to dethrone the current Emir and dismantle the four new Emirates created under a controversial 2019 law.

Although not officially announced, the newspaper reliably reports that Sanusi II has been reinstated and is expected in Kano on Friday.

“So certainly with the passage of the Bill, Sanusi automatically stands reinstated. No need for confirmation, the thing to is wait for the Governor to assent to it,” a source disclosed, according to the report.

Meanwhile, the Majority Leader of the Kano State House of Assembly, Lawan Hussaini Chediyar Yan Gurasa, who sponsored the Amendment Bill, shortly after Thursday’s session, revealed to journalists that, “the bill has been sent to the governor for assent, now there is no longer an active Emir in Kano in all the five Emirates; Kano, Bichi, Gaya, Rano and Karaye. The law now provides the governor to call on the traditional kingmakers to choose a new king.”
