In a dramatic turn of events, the Kano State High Court has ordered security forces not to remove the reinstated 16th Emir of Kano, Muhammadu Sanusi II, while simultaneously mandating the removal of the 15th Emir, Aminu Ado Bayero, from the palace.
Adding to the turmoil, the Federal High Court in Kano issued a conflicting order, prohibiting the arrest of Aminu Ado Bayero and barring the removal of Muhammadu Sanusi II from the palace.
With two courts issuing opposing directives, authorities are now caught in a legal tug-of-war, leaving everyone questioning which court’s ruling they are required to adhere to.
As the situation unfolds, the next steps remain uncertain, adding a layer of complexity to the Kano emirate’s already intricate landscape.
