Kano State Deputy Governor, Aminu Abdussalam Gwarzo has stated the Court order halting the installation of a new Emir in Kano is not valid and was not submitted officially.
Recall a Federal High Court in Kano issued an order stopping the Kano State Government from enforcing the Kano State Emirate Council Repeal Law.
Kano State Governor, Abba Yusuf had on Thursday signed the Kano Emirate Bill (2024), into law and announced the return of former CBN Governor Sanusi Lamido Sanusi as Emir of Kano.
Sanusi had been removed from office in March 2020 by Ganduje, who cited insubordination as reason for his action.
Yusuf also deposed the Emirs of Kano, Bichi, Karaye, Rano and Gaya and ordered them to vacate their Palaces.
The state Deputy Governor, Aminu Abdussalam Gwarzo, 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.”
