Mallam Sanusi is a very ambitious man. As soon as he was made CBN Governor, he saw a path to greater power and authority. He saw a path to the throne of the Kano Emirate.

Since there were others with stronger claim to the throne than he was, he immediately began to court the Fulani-Northern power base. Men (all men) who could convince the king makers to overlook candidates with stronger claim.

He attacked the government of (the southern infidel) Goodluck Jonathan. He attacked the heads of the banking and financial sector (almost all southerners). He made himself a rabid attack dog, ostensibly in the defence of the Nigerian populace but in truth, it was a bid to make himself popular with the Fulani-Nothern power brokers.

He was successful. But at what cost? The Nigerian financial sector was badly damaged. A damage it has never recovered from. His half-truths were used against the reelection of Goodluck Jonathan and helped the victory of "the Messiah", the chosen one whose chains of change Nigerians now enjoy. The Fulani-Northern establishment achieved its aims and rewarded Sanusi with the Emirate he desired.

But Emir Sanusi had become too used to barking. He had become too used to going on the attack. He had become too used to railing against injustice and infractions as he saw them. He had become too used to shouting in the name of the common man. And as Emir, he continued in that regard.

This time his rants were now directed against those within and around his domain as Emir. Unfortunately, these people were the same Fulani-Northern politicians that he had used (and had been used by) on his way to the throne. The same people who care only for their own power and pockets. The same people who would recieve bribes before they would execute the duties they are appointed or elected to perform. The same people who would recieve bribes to ignore the non-performance of duties to the people they are appointed or elected to serve. The same people who pocket hundreds of thousands of dollars on video but still recieve awards from the same Fulani-Northern establishment, awards of "excellent service". The rabid dog was going against its own masters.

Whether he became more ambitious and gunned for the office of vice president as some say, I wouldn't know. But he did attack the traditions of the Fulani-Northern establishement. Traditions that ensure the common northerner remains a serf to his overlords. That keep the vast population in poverty so they can be used as needed. That keep the vast population of the north uneducated so they don't rebel against the status quo. He attacked the men that made him king, that get their power from the subjugation first of their own people in the north and then the rest of Nigeria.

No matter how strong a dog is, it's masters can still shoot it between the eyes. Mallam Sanusi has been brought down to size by the same powers that raised him up.

He was ambitious, he was loud, it doesn't seem he was very wise.

helinues:
@ op, Emir Sanusi communicated that to you directly right?
