Breaking: DSS operatives lay siege at Kano Emir’s palace amidst Sanusi reinstatement rumours

Some operatives of the Department of State Services were spotted at the palace of the Emir of Kano, Alhaji Aminu Ado Bayero, on Thursday, 23rd of May, 2024.

This is coming on the heels of the passage of the Kano State Emirates Council Amendment Law (Repeal Bill), 2024, by the Kano State House of Assembly on Thursday morning.

The New Kano Emirate Councils Law has not only reinstated the five demoted kingmakers to their former positions, but has also empowered them to reconvene in Kano and reinstall former Central Bank of Nigeria governor, Muhammadu Sanusi, as the sole Emir of Kano.

Meanwhile, there were indications that the deposed Emir of Kano, Sanusi Lamido II is set to be reinstated.
