Tofa Led Kano Group Vows To Return Sanusi To The Throne

A group of Kano leaders led by 1993 presidential candidate, Bashir Tofa has blasted Governor Abdullahi Ganduje’s decision to dethrone Emir Muhammadu Sanusi as a brazen act of illegality and vowed to sustain its judicial actions to upturn the law used by the governor for the action.

The group in a statement issued in Kano nevertheless called for calm.

The group said:

“We, ADVOCATES FOR A UNITED KANO, have received with utter shock and disbelief the statement read by the Secretary to Kano State Government, announcing the removal of His Highness Muhammad Sanusi ll, as Emir of Kano,” the statement read.

“In view of this sad, unfortunate and illegal dethronement of the Emir by Governor Abdullahi Umar Ganduje, the ADVOCATES call on all Kanawa and residents of Kano State and beyond to stay calm, and not to resort to any violent reaction whatsoever. Violence is no solution to anything, for no one can predict where it may lead to.

“We absolutely believe in whatever Allah (subhanaHu wa Ta’ala) ordained, and we put our complete trust in Him, for He Has power over all things.

“In particular we have vowed to sustain our judicial challenge to the unlawful Law passed by the Kano House of Assembly under which the Governor purportedly removed the Emir.”
