Kano Gov Orders Arrest Of Deposed Emir, Aminu Ado Bayero
Kano State Governor, Abba Yusuf, has ordered the immediate arrest of the deposed Emir of Kano, Aminu Ado Bayero, accusing him of causing unrest in the state.
This order follows Bayero’s deposition by the Governor just two days prior.
A statement released early Saturday by the Governor’s spokesperson, Sanusi Bature, alleged that Bayero was secretly brought into Kano city last night in an attempt to forcibly reclaim the palace.
The statement, issued at 7:00 am on Saturday in Kano, confirmed that the new Emir, Sanusi Lamido Sanusi, arrived at the palace with the Governor, his Deputy, the Speaker of the House of Assembly, and other top officials around 1:00 am on Saturday.
The statement stressed the government’s commitment to maintaining peace and order, warning that any actions threatening the state’s stability would be met with strict measures.
Speaking to the media early this morning, Deputy Governor Aminu Gwarzo accused powerful forces from Abuja of instigating the situation and vowed to resist any attempt to impose the deposed Emir on the people.
Currently, the entire nation is watching Kano State closely to see how the situation will develop.
