Muhammadu Sanusi II, who was deposed as the Emir of Kano four years ago, has been reinstated to the throne by Governor Abba Yusuf.
The Governor announced the decision on Thursday after signing the Kano State Emirate Council (Repeal) Bill 2024 into law.
“With the full support of the kingmakers, I have approved the reappointment of Malam Sanusi Lamido,” the governor said to cheers at the Art Chamber of the Kano State Government House around 5:16 pm on Thursday.
