The reinstated Emir of Kano, Muhammadu Sanusi, has picked up his re-appointment letter at the Kano State Government House, on Friday.

The Emir was reinstated after Governor Abba Kabir Yusuf had signed the new emirate council law which removed emirs of Kano, Bichi, Rano, Gaya and Karaye, on Thursday.

Emir Sanusi arrived at the Kano Government House to officially receive his appointment letter and resume work as the sole first-class Emir of the state.

He arrived Kano late Thursday and a lowkey homecoming reception was organised for him as result of security advice.

Sanusi was dethroned in 2020 by former Governor Abdullahi Ganduje after a personal rift.

Before the dethronement, Ganduje had split Kano emirate into five – Kano, Bichi, Rano, Gaya and Karaye.

The law which the former governor used to remove Sanusi was, however, repealed by Kano House of Assembly on Thursday.
