Newly Crowned Monarch, Emir of Kano, HRH Sanusi Lamido Sanusi has decided to speak after a riot broke
out in his home town immediately he was declared the new Emir of Kano on
Sunday, 8th of June, 2014. The Emir says a lot of people who have spoken
against his throne, have spoken ignorantly because they know little or nothing
about his family or the throne.
“I grew up under the
care of late Ado Bayero. I am more close to the late emir than my father who
was outside the country. The late emir trained me; my first wife with whom I
spent over 25 years with, is his daughter.
“We shared the same
bed with his son, Turakin Kano Alhaji
Nasiru Ado Bayero for over 10 years. Therefore we are calling on those
people from outside the palace to stop interfering on the things that they didn’t
understand.”
He added: “The Kano
Emir Palace is one united family. Therefore I’m assuring the governor that all
these riots and protests are not from our house, none of our relatives is
behind these things and none of our relatives will sponsor such thing or be
happy because of it. Because the way we grew up we all knew that all princes
nurture the ambition of becoming emir one day but its Allah who chooses who
will be the emir.
“The day an emir is
selected all the princes are paying their allegiance to him. This is our
tradition as nobody from the royal family is behind these riots.”
