Chaos erupts as Governor Yusuf orders the immediate arrest of the deposed Emir of Kano, Aminu Ado Bayero. Read more about the unfolding drama!

Chaos has ensued in the Kano Kingdom as Governor Abba Kabir Yusuf orders the arrest of deposed Emir Aminu Ado Bayero, who attempted to reclaim the palace post-deposition. The scandal deepens as it is revealed that the deposed Emir was smuggled into Kano, sparking a wave of controversy and speculation. Deputy Governor Ribadu's involvement in flying Ado Bayero back to Kano has raised eyebrows and led to conflicting reports denying any backing from the NSA. Meanwhile, the dethroned Emir has sought refuge in Nassarawa LGA, setting up a new residence after a dramatic return to the city in the early hours of Saturday.

In a surprising turn of events, the 16th Fulani Emir of Kano, Muhammadu Sanusi II, defiantly mounted the throne as Emir of Kano, defying court orders and receiving royal greetings amidst the turmoil. As the power struggle intensifies, the Kano Governor and Emir Sanusi find themselves in a closed-door meeting with security chiefs, raising questions about the future stability of the region.

Interesting Fact: Aminu Ado Bayero is the 15th Emir of Kano, adding to the historical significance of the current events. Another interesting development is the repeal of a 2019 emirate law that led to the ousting of Sanusi Lamido Sanusi in 2020, triggering a chain of events in the Kano Kingdom.
