The Attorney General of Kano State, Ibrahim Muktar, on Wednesday said the state government did not banish the deposed Emir of Kano, Alhaji  Muhammadu  Sanusi II.

Muktar said the state government was clear in its press statement on Monday that Sanusi was deposed, but never made any reference to any banishment.

The Kano AG said this on Channels Television’s Sunrise Daily programme on Wednesday.

Muktar said this just as security was on Wednesday beefed up in a compound, where Sanusi is being detained in Awe town in the Awe Local Government Area of Nasarawa State.

The Kano  State Governor, Abdullahi Ganduje, had on Monday deposed Sanusi because of what the state government called “total disrespect  to lawful instructions from the office of the state government.”

On Monday, the dethroned monarch was banished to Loko, a remote location in Nasarawa State. On Tuesday,  he was relocated to Awe.

Sanusi’s legal team, led by a former President of the Nigerian Bar Association, Abubakar Balarabe-Mahmoud,  on Tuesday, asked the government to release Sanusi or face a legal action.

The lawyers, who described Sanusi’s banishment and detention as illegal, alleged that the deposed Emir was being subjected to maximum stress and trauma.

But on Wednesday, the Kano State attorney general said the state government did not banish  Sanusi.

He said, “If you listen to the Secretary to the State Government when he was addressing the press on the issue of the removal of the emir from office, there was nowhere he stated that the emir was banished from Kano State.

“So, the decision of the government when the emir was removed on Monday was that he was removed from office and a new one appointed. The issue of banishment was not part of the decision of the Kano State Government.

I see Major General Mumuhadu Buhari hands in all of this

Very mean and wicked old man

Buhari has finished this guy.

Tough times don't last, Tough people do.



In under 72 hours, Sanusi already has three appointments, the most recent being a United Nations appointment.

This guy will survive!

Hmmm.

Does a Governor have the power to unseat an Emir, banish him to another State of Jurisdiction and then hold the Emir under house arrest in a state outside his jurisdiction?
i seriously doubt.
There is a known face behind the Mask.
I see Monkey hand in Aso Villa in all these matter.
When a man is very vindictive, his antecedents are trails that gives him out.
For everyman, there is a time.
8yrs will soon be over.
A house that was used to detain an innocent man, will one day be used to incarcerate an evil man.

You guys will always find means to get Buhari involve in your shit.

Buhari has finished this guy.

Help Me oh my Lord. Save me and have mercy on me. Let the people know that you did it.
Let this be your prayer today through the weekend. Good morning nairalanders.

Is that not their tradition? You accepted a post that has both good things and difficult things, enjoyed the good things, even used N5b to renovate the palace. Has fleet of exotic cars, lived in opulence without any complain but when it is time to face the difficult things associated with the post, you start kicking and looking for who to blame. Enjoy your banishment my friend.

What sort of political false imprisonment is this using tradition as codename? This infringes his rights as a citizen.

Misplaced priorities.
Heardsmen are busy killing innocent civilians everyday, and they are sending 40 security men to keep Sanusi under watch.
This country is a banana republic.

It is obvious that this man is under house arrest, why Buhari government is always like this?

Hausas are the most useless people on earth. This world is coming to an end gradually as well. Repent and give your life to God.

I weep for the future of Nigeria. Some ediots are jubilating because he was against gej. the man raised a red flag of money that's meant for all of us and how gej sat and watch money being stolen by his elite. Is that why you guys hate him? Sanusi is a no nonsense man..... hate him or like him. He would have been ass licking ganduje's ass for him to remain in the seat if he doesn't have integrity.

He will grow higher cos he is an intelligent man with good records.

#teamSanusi

We have heard already. That's what they will say. Well, this whole "banishment" still has a very sweet twist at the end. I hope Nigerians are ready

Shameless adults that can lie even when caught red handed.

It is very important to have dual citizenship so that if something like this happens you go just leave their Nigeria for them.

Whatever!

Misplaced priorities is one big issue in this useless country. Corona Virus is spreading faster than predicted and the trade war between Saudi and Russia is about to push Oil over-dependent countries into inflation and u people are here disturbing Sanusi and family when there are more important things to focus upon.. No wonder Whites Trump called Nigeria a ...funny enough he is correct.

Eleyi gidi gan..
