BREAKING: Kano Government Dethrones Emir Sanusi II

Posted by E.L.E.X on March 09 2020 under News









The Kano State Government has announced the sacking of the Emir of Kano, Muhammad Sanusi II.

The information was made public by the Director-General, Media and Communications, Kano State Government, Salihu Yakasai on Monday on his official Twitter handle, @Dawisu.

β€œThe Kano State Executive Council has unanimously approved the dethronement of the Emir of Kano Mallam Muhammad Sanusi II at a special sitting held today by the council,” he tweeted.

Sanusi ascended the throne in 2014, following the death of his granduncle Ado Bayero. His grandfather Muhammadu Sanusi I reigned from 1953 to 1963, when he was deposed by Premier Ahmadu Bello. His father Aminu Sanusi was Chiroma of Kano.

Prior to his accession, Sanusi was an economist and banker. He served as the Governor of the Central Bank of Nigeria from 2009 to 2014, when he was suspended by President Goodluck Jonathan after raising the alarm on the $20bn alleged to be missing.

Recall that the emir is currently in a battle with the governor Abdullahi Ganduje which started last year amid allegations that he supported the governorship candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party, Abba Kabir-Yusuf.

The monarch has since been under investigation for alleged corruption while his emirate was split into five to whittle down his influence.
