Kano moves to resolve kingship impasse between Bayero, Sanusi IIKano State Government on Thursday said the impasse surrounding the Emirate tussle will be resolved amicably soon.
However, Governor Yusuf dethroned Bayero and reinstated Sanusi II as emir, citing the Kano State Emirate Council (Repeal) Law 2024, which dissolved the five emirate councils created by Ganduje, including Kano emirate.
Aminu Bayero refused to vacate the palace, claiming he was the rightful Emir, leading to a standoff between his supporters and those of Sanusi II.
The courts have issued conflicting orders with some rulings in favour of Sanusi II and others in favour of Bayero.
According to him, the government’s approach is guided by respect for the rule of law, traditional institutions, and the collective interest of the people of Kano State.
