The Ousted Emir of Kano, Mohammed Sanusi Lamido II has been arrested by Security Operatives and taken out of the state.
Politics Nigeria gathered that Sanusi was placed under house arrest before being whisked away to Nassarawa State, where is expected to spend the rest of his life in Asylum.
His palace was surrounded by a combined team of DSS, Police and Military personnel. The state Governor, Abdullahi Umar Ganduje, is set to announce a new emir anytime soon. It will be recalled that both men have had a long-running feud.
Early on Monday, Sanusi was dethroned on the orders of the state government which claimed that the Emir was going against the tradition and culture of the Emirate.
It’s quite unfortunate that the court could allow politicians to play down political instition.. very soon, many event will be unfolding in this same direction. Too bad
At last Gandollar has done it.Which way Nigeria.l have always say it, that under the regime of PMB anything can happen. lf you can’t fight them join them. But God will surely visit every evil doers someday…
Ganduje finally dethroned one of the best Northerners,dead or alive,the Emir of Kano,Sanusi Lamido Sanusi 2… let it be known that he who murders sleep can’t sleep with his two eyes closed… Sanusi should move on with his life.Unlike Ganduje,Sanusi has this academic clout and experience that is sought after globally…Ngozi Okonjo-Iweala would have been rubbished if she had lived here in Nigeria…Sanusi is better off without that title cos he is not someone who can be caged…he is also a man who has his personal opinion on topical national and international issues,which clueless politicians like “gandoller” are most uncomfortable with!
