Emir Sanusi Lamido: Court overturns Law against the Dethronement of Bayero

In a landmark ruling, a Federal High Court in Kano has declared null and void all measures taken by the Kano State government to repeal the Kano Emirate Council Law, effectively reinstating the law and paving the way for the restoration of the emirate’s powers and privileges.

The court’s decision is a major victory for Ado Bayero, the former Emir of Kano, who was dethroned following the controversial repeal of the law.

This ruling has significant implications for the emirate and the state, and is seen as a rebuke to the Kano State government’s attempts to undermine the traditional institution.

Aluta News spoke to sources close to the emirate, who expressed jubilation at the court’s decision. “This is a victory for justice and the rule of law,” said one source. “We are grateful to the court for upholding the rights of the emirate and its people.”
