Kano State Governor, Abba Kabir Yusuf, held a significant meeting on Thursday with the National Security Adviser, Malam Nuhu Ribadu, in Abuja, amidst ongoing tensions concerning the Kano royal throne.

While the specifics of their discussion were not publicly disclosed, Governor Yusuf described the meeting as a “fruitful engagement.”

This high-profile meeting comes at a crucial time as Kano State navigates the contentious issue of the dethronement of Alhaji Aminu Ado Bayero and the reinstatement of Alhaji Muhammadu Sanusi as the Emir of Kano.

Governor Yusuf’s recent actions have stirred considerable political and social unrest within the state, leading to heightened security concerns.

The governor’s decision to involve the police in arresting Alhaji Aminu Ado Bayero for allegedly “creating tension” in Kano has added to the complexity of the situation.

In a twist of events, Ado Bayero, operating from a mini palace in Nassarawa, received military protection, suggesting possible support from the Federal Government.

The meeting also follows accusations from the deputy governor of Kano, Comrade Aminu Abdulsalam Gwarzo, who alleged that Ribadu had supported Ado Bayero’s return to Kano after his dethronement.

Ribadu denied these claims and had previously threatened legal action against Gwarzo unless he received an apology, which the deputy governor has since issued.
