Kano state government has accused the National Chairman of the All Progressive Congress (APC), Abdullahi Ganduje of using the office of the National Security Adviser (NSA), to create tension in the state.
ASHENEWS reports that in the wee hours of Saturday, the deposed Emir of Kano, Aminu Bayero arrived and went into the Palace.
Reacting to the development while speaking with journalists, the Deputy Governor, Aminu Gwarzo alleged on Saturday morning, that Ganduje connive with the office of the National Security Adviser to bring in the dethroned Emir in a chartered flight on Saturday.

“It is unfortunate that the APC National Chairman, Abdullahi Ganduje is using the National Security Adviser to create tension in the state by smuggling into the state, the former emir, Aminu Ado Bayero,” the deputy governor alleged.
He said the appointment and dethronement of Emir or any traditional title is solely the prerogative of the state government, hence he expressed surprise that the federal government will be interfering in whatever happened in that direction.
“I am here together with the governor and other top government functionaries to ensure that the new emir, Muhammadu Sanusi II start exercising is power and authority immediately after he was given his appointment letter yesterday, Friday.”
The deputy governor appealed to Kano residents to go about their legal and normal businesses without fear or intimidation.
