The presidential candidate of the New Nigeria Peoples Party (NNPP), Engr. Rabi’u Musa Kwankwaso, has vowed that the incoming government in Kano will revisit the dethronement of the 14th Emir of Kano, Muhammadu Sanusi, Daily Trust has reported.
Recall that Sanusi was dethroned by Governor Abdullahi Ganduje on March 9, 2020, and also banished from Kano and sent to Loko.
Ganduje was deputy governor to Kwankwaso when Sanusi was installed as Emir of Kano.
However, sspeaking in a viral video, Kwankwao said the dethronement and balkanisation of the emirate would be reviewed by the government of Abba Kabir Yusuf, the governor-elect, who is popularly known as Abba Gida-Gida.
“We have campaigned and as you know we are popular in Nigeria especially in Kano state, we are now back and God willing we will continue with the good works our administration left. This incoming governor and his team will take them up.”
“As elders, we will continue to advise them to do the right thing. We tried not intervene in the issue of bringing or removing any Emir, but now, an opportunity has come.
“Those who were given this opportunity will sit down and see to the issues. They will look at what they are expected to do. Beside the Emir, even the emirate has been divided into five places. All these need to be studied. Usually a leader inherits good, bad and issues that are hard to reconcile.”
