Abdulsalami Abubakar Speaks On Sanusi’s Dethronement, President Buhari’s Role

A former Head of State, Abdulsalami Abubakar, has said he doubts whether President Muhammadu Buhari intervened in the feud that resulted in the Kano State Government on Monday dethroning Muhammadu Sanusi II as the Emir of Kano.

According to a report by DailyNigerian newspaper on Tuesday, Mr Abubakar said this in an interview with the Voice of America Hausa service.

Mr Sanusi was dethroned as the 14th Emir of Kano, and banished to a remote local government in Nasarawa for alleged “outright disregard for the state government and Kano Emirate’s traditional norms”.

Aminu Ado Bayero was immediately appointed by the state government as the 15th Emir of Kano to replace the deposed emir.

Mr Sanusi’s legal team led by Abubakar Mahmoud had said it would challenge his banishment to Loko local government area in Nasarawa State.
