Sanusi’s Half-Brother Pulls Out Of Kano State Emirate Council

The principal private secretary to the deposed emir of Kano has resigned from the Kano emirate council.

Naija News understands that Mr. Abba, a half brother to the recently deposed Kano emir, Muhammadu Sanusi, also voluntarily relinquished his traditional title of ‘Falakin Kano’.

Abba also made his resignation known to the public via a notable online platform in a letter written to the secretary of the Kano emirate council and copied the councilor finance. He also did not disclose the reason behind his voluntary resignation.

Mr Abba was appointed by Mr Sanusi and subsequently elevated to the position he held when the former monarch parted ways with his uncle, Isa Sanusi, who was the first person to hold the post in Kano emirate.

The letter read in part:

“I write formally to inform you that from Monday March 9th, 2020, I have voluntarily resigned my position from principal private secretary of Sarkin Kano Muhammad Sanusi ll. In addition I have also voluntarily relinquished the title of Falakin Kano.

“I hereby wish to express my sincere gratitude to the emirate council for offering me opportunity to serve and I also thank the entire staff of the emirate council for the cooperation they rendered to me during the period of my service. Please accept the assurance of my esteemed regards always.”
