Reinstated Emir of Kano, Sanusi Lamido, Arrives to Receive Appointment Letter

The reinstated Emir of Kano, Sanusi Lamido, has arrived at the Kano State Government House to receive his letter of appointment before resuming his duties as the new emir, Okay.ng understands.

The new first-class Emir was honoured with a homecoming reception late Thursday. Lamido is scheduled to attend a mini-durbar ceremony at 10 a.m. today at the Africa House in Kano Government House. Following this, he will proceed to the Nassarawa Emir’s palace.

From there, the Emir will lead the Muslim Jumat prayers at the Kano Central Mosque located at the palace in Kofar Kudu.

On Thursday, Kano State Governor Abba Yusuf reappointed Lamido as the Emir of Kano, four years after he was dethroned by former governor Abdullahi Ganduje. Additionally, Governor Yusuf deposed five emirs appointed by Ganduje and gave them a 48-hour ultimatum to vacate their official residences and palaces. He directed them to hand over all affairs to the Commissioner for Local Government and Chieftaincy Affairs.

However, the Federal High Court in Kano has issued an order stopping the Kano State Government from enforcing the Kano State Emirate Council Repeal Law. Justice Mohammed Liman granted the order in response to an application by Alhaji Aminu Babba Dan Agundi, the Sarkin Dawaki Babba of the Kano Emirate.

The lawsuit lists the Kano State Government, the House of Assembly, the Speaker, the Attorney-General, the Commissioner of Police, the Inspector-General of Police, the Nigeria Security and Civil Defence Corps, and the State Security Service as respondents in the fundamental rights case.
