What Kano govt, Assembly did is rescue mission – Sanusi ll

The reinstated Emir of Kano, Muhammadu Sanusi II has commended Kano State government and the State House of Assembly for his reinstatement as the 16th Emir of Kano.

Sanusi described the intervention of the government as a rescued mission on Friday.

Recall that the Emir had received his letter of appointment from the Kano State Governor, Abba Yusuf at the Government House in Kano.

“The Arabians used to say in everything that we are going to witness, there is a lesson that shows us that God is there. Whatever is happening to an individual is preordained by Allah and to those who are sensible enough, it’s a lesson.

“God is one and whatever He does, nobody can change and what He doesn’t do, nobody can.

“Time will not permit for long talks. Whatever we will say, we have said it when we were leaving. We made it clear that God has preordained time and cause for everything and everyone.

“He gave leadership to whom he wanted and at the time he wanted. When He gives, no one can take it away and when he takes it away, nobody can take it back,” he said while delivering his appreciation speech.

Reflecting on his journey, Sanusi recalled his initial appointment in 2014 by former governor Rabiu Kwankwaso and noted the significance of his reappointment a decade later by Governor Yusuf.

“In this year, it was once that we had Emir Muhammadu Koguna who was overthrown and he came back after some days. This shows that in 1,000 years, there has been no case like what happened now.”

Sanusi also criticized the fragmentation of emirates in northern Nigeria, warning against the potential proliferation of emirs which, he argued, would undermine the traditional system.

“This thing that has been brought to Kano, had it been it was allowed, one day we will wake up with Emir of Kumbotso, Bichi, Fagge and 44 Emirs. So what the government and the assembly did is a rescue mission.”

Governor Yusuf, while presenting the appointment letter, expressed his confidence in Sanusi’s abilities, stating, “By the powers conferred on me by the Kano Emirate Council Law of 1984 and 2024, and supported by the recommendation of the kingmakers, I have the singular pleasure of confirming the reappointment of Muhammadu Sanusi II as the Emir of Kano and the head of the Kano Emirate Council.”

He praised Sanusi’s competence, credibility, and popularity, urging him to foster unity and harmony wthin the emirate.
