Mr Ado-Bayero is challenging his removal in court and has occupied the mini palace of the emir in defiance of directives by the state government. Mr Hotoro’s post came on the heels of a debate in the state on why only two federal lawmakers from the constituencies in the Kano metropolis have so far visited the reinstated emir, Lamido Sanusi.

“It’s disheartening to see that we are in a critical condition in dire need of their voices at their respective chambers to caution the present police authorities not to be partisan in the crisis and do the needful, but our lawmakers thought that the fight is not theirs,” Mr Hotoro said. The judge, Abdullahi Liman, ruled that the reappointment of Mr Sanusi was null and void because the government disobeyed the court’s earlier order restraining it from taking further action on the new emirate council law of the state.
