The 16th Fulani Emir of Kano, Muhammadu Sanusi II, has mounted the palace seat, receiving royal greetings.
Despite security agencies in Kano State saying they’re following a court order against bringing back the deposed Ado Bayero, Emir Muhammadu Sanusi II was cheered by many supporters as he rode a horse from the inner palace to the outer one, where a sitting monarch meet people and hold court.
The state Deputy Governor, Aminu Abdussalam Gwarzo, earlier told newsmen that “nobody can change their position on the reinstatement of Muhammadu Sanusi II because they did it legally.”
He said, “The so-called court order banning them from reinstating Sanusi was not officially submitted to them, and as at the time they did the reinstatement, it was after working hours, which shows that anything coming from the court on that matter is already late.”
