Kano: Why I Was Told To Dethrone Emir Sanusi - Ganduje

The Emir of Kano, his Highness Mohammadu Sanusi II has failed to show up at the inauguration ceremony of the governor despite a formal invitation.

Naija News recalls that the feud between the duo of Dr Ganduje and Emir Mahammadu Sanusi 11 has been lingering for sometimes leading to the Balkanisation of the Kano Emirate Council into four component units.

However, the new emir of Bichi and Rano were at the event.

The Chief Justice of the state Justice Sagir Umar administered the oath on Ganduje and his Deputy Dr Nasir Yusuf Gawuna

Dignitaries present at the occasion include diplomats, businessmen, top security officials, APC stalwarts and bureaucrats.

According to a report by the nation, the Sani Abacha Stadium venue of the event was jampacked with APC supporters, while security was watertight.

Governor Ganduje and Emir Sanusi are not in the best of terms. The Ganduje government has broken up the Kano Emirate into five and has appointed four new emirates.
