Rabiu Kwankwaso, has accused President Muhammadu Buhari of masterminding the dethronement of the Emir of Kano, Muhammad Sanusi ll.
dethronement of the Emir of Kano, Muhammad Sanusi llMr Kwankwaso, who appointed Mr Sanusi ll as the Emir of Kano in 2014, told BBC Hausa on Wednesday that “Kano State government officials have been saying they were directed to dethrone Mr Sanusi ll. He instructed them.”
Mr Kwankwaso said Mr Buhari interferes in Kano issues and that “he doesn’t interfere where his intervention is needed, but intervenes on issues he is supposed to be neutral about.” The former governor described the dethronement of the deposed emir of Kano as a sad incident to Kano, Nigeria and entire world. He said “The emir is the global citizen.”Mr Kwankwaso has also dismissed the allegation that he queried Mr Sanusi ll twice during his tenure as governor. “I have never issued a query to His Highness, Emir of Kano.”
He said to the best of his knowledge, as the government officials said, Mr Sanusi’s sin to Mr Ganduje according to them, was the monarch’s statement that whoever wins Kano 2019 governorship election should be given his mandate.
