A daughter of the 14th Emir of Kano, Muhammad Sanusi, Hafsat Lamido Sanusi, is set to marry Othman El-Kudan years after her divorce.
The wedding will take place on Friday at the Emir of Zazzau’s Palace in Zaria, Kaduna state.
Hafsat, a graduate of law, was previously married to Abubakar Kurfi. They wedded in Kano on December 20, 2016, at a ceremony that had high-profile personalities in attendance.
The seven-day event included Kamu (Kamun Amariya) ‘Catch the bride ceremony’ at the former emir’s house; Kunshi, a henna party; bridal shower, dinner, and horse ride from Kano to Katsina and Walimat Nikkai.
Their marriage produced a female child.
Since her divorce, Hafsat has bagged a master’s degree in law at Soas University in London.
The groom, it was learnt, was previously married to Kannywood actress Rahman Hassan.
Othman is a former political adviser to ex-President Goodluck Jonathan and also a Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) chieftain.
Former Vice President Namadi Sambo will stand as the groom’s father at the low-key wedding while the Emir of Zazzau, Ahmed Bammali, will stand as the bride’s father.
