The Court of Appeal in Abuja has temporarily halted the reinstatement of Muhammadu Sanusi II as the 16th Emir of Kano. This decision comes in the wake of a previous ruling on January 10, 2025, which supported the former Central Bank of Nigeria governor’s reinstatement.
The suspension relates to the approval that validated the Kano State Government’s decision to repeal the 2019 Emirate Law, impacting Sanusi’s position. The suspension order adds another layer to the ongoing legal and political saga surrounding the emirate and its leadership.
Further developments are anticipated as the legal process continues.
