Nigeria Dangerously Divided Along Ethnic, Religious Lines; Economy In Doldrums – Sanusi

A Federal High Court sitting in Abuja has granted an interim order for the release of the deposed Emir of Kano, Muhammad Sanusi II from detention.

Justice Anwuli Chikere granted the order following an exparte motion filed on his behalf by his lawyer, Lateef Fagbemi SAN.

The judge ordered that the order should be served on the Inspector-General of Police (IGP), Muhammed Adamu; the Director-General of the Department of State Service (DSS), Yusuf Bichi; the Attorney-General of Kano State, Ibrahim Muktar, and the Attorney-General of the Federation (AGF), Abubakar Malami (SAN).

Sanusi was deposed by Governor Abdullahi Ganduje and banished to Nasarawa State.

While Sanusi had accepted the dethronement, he has, however, opposed the banishment to Nasarawa State.
