The guy is a bit of an idiot

But let's get something straight here, so let's say after 8yrs and opposition wins governor election in Kano and decided to revisit this case, won't SLS be dethroned again and this very one reinstated?

Na so e go continue nah..Kanostrophic already

Traditional rulers should learn to play non-partisan politics or not be involved in politics at all. That is the only way they can preserve their dignity and reverence, as it was for Sanusi so it is for Bayero. If Ganduje eventually grabs power by proxy, I expect a reversal of this action.

Amir S.L. Sanusi was loved by the masses. He was there for everyone both d rich nd d poor. I could remember wen Amir Sanusi stood for a peasant farmer whom a rich man wanted claiming his land in Ganduje village in dawakin Tofa LGA. Amir Sanusi ordered d rich man to pay a fine of 100k to d farmer for d 2 slap he gave d farmer.
Amir Sanusi was instrumental for girl child education in d north. He was against Almajiri nd Street begging wic did not go well with d elites. Creating new Emirates is very expensive compare to having an Emir nd Hakimis to run d traditional stools in kano state. Ganduje will soon go into political oblivion.
Allah ya ja zamanin ka Amir Sanusi Lamido Sanusi sarkin kano.

This is wrong na

I was disappointed that Bayero in particular accepted the throne from Ganduje.
I expected him in particular to reject Ganduje's ill-conceived gift knowing full well that he dethroned Sanusi in a wrong manner.
When men of character turn to opportunists.

God1000:
Wow, all I can say is that I am happy for emir Sanusi, he was unjustly removed

Happy in what sense ? Ganduja a man of wisdom could see through all what a single Emir had financially. You could remember the major reason for dethronment was more of financial recklessness.
The finances was centralized on just on Emir.

With someone like me as the president, these governors will abide by every single thing in the constitution, down to the adminstration of the local governments.

48 hours, yet someone is not allowed to pack his personal belongings? Where is that power to restrict him from?

Some of these actions have no legal backing. Which is why, should the number one man in the country decide to be interested, everything will change and it will be seen from the lens of the ignorant as oppression.

Ganduje started this particular nonsense in Kano.

Anyways, leave it to Nigerian politicians, especially the governors to politicize every institution in the country.

Our politicians needed to examine themselves and be very careful, the way they are misbehaving are beyond is young human comprehension. See what they have turned our royal fathers to, one dethroned another enthroned, why must they be subjected to this type of treatment. If care is not taken, another governor may also come and dethrone him again. Our royal fathers are esteem individual in our society, they must not continuously be subjected to molestation by any governor.

What he has done is part of what he should do as a governor.
Stop crying! 🤣🤣🤣

Politics and kingship

But let me use this opportunity to address religious bigots. If what is happening in Kano now is about Bishops or pastors, the bigots will condemn Christianity and say that Christianity is a white man's weapon to destroy Africa. Can you now see that Africans are the problem? The same religion changing Emirs in Kano is peaceful in UAE. So, stop blaming religion. Humans are the ones abusing religion. Religion does not abuse itself.

Emir has nothing to do with Religion, it was a method of the leadership of the Hausa kingdom even before the arrival of Islam in Nigeria.

You missed it
Did they say the enthronement and dethronement were according to Islamic injunction or Kano emirate laws
Always learn to analyze according to the context

If it's all about chief Imam or sultan then that sounds Islamic

Kukutente23:

Rather, this is an abuse of politics and a legacy of the colonial govt.

The traditional stools should either be banned or removed from under the control of politicians.

This makes no sense

It is what it is. Traditional stools all around the world are losing their independence and command except in some extremely conservative countries.

So while it make no sense that a governor can just suddenly depose a king, the fact still remains that they are by law under the LG and that gives the politician the power to decide their existence.

They already destroyed it. They are just kings by title alone.

All these Emirs don dey look like LG chairmen for my eye.

So na executive dey appoint them like they're commisioners? 🤣🤣🤣

Babangidapikin:
Premium Wahala what if he doesn't have any house outside Kano...The Government should at least provide accommodation in Abuja for him ...

The Emirate's House is government property so it's expected for every King to have another (Personal) house outside his kingdom in case of exile or situations like that.

If you can't see, we on ground can see little steps. 8 years of Ganduje was a great disaster for Kano, and we hope never to see his type again in power. 🙏🏾

Emir is an Arabic word. Ask yourself how Arabic language gets to the northern Nigeria.

The British desecrated our Traditional institutions while revering theirs.

Unfortunately, we still cannot dump their hypocritical disposition and adopt ours that will ultimately make our traditional institutions respectable again.

Africa, oh! Africa??

Absolute monarchy is oppressive and regressive..... I prefer a functional democracy.

Bayero or Bairrow doesn't need a car to go home from the kano Airport man.
He can manage his Bairrow home.
Instead of tracking Abi?
No more buying fuel.

Next election in Kano is going to be bloddy

On the contrary there would be peace nd tranquility

I can tell you the man is not ready for governance. No meaningful development since he assumed the seat of power in the state. Very pathetic!!

The house is working on removing the law that gave the governor power to depose the emir, it's the second time such is happening. So, they are cutting it from the grassroot.

Politicians are foolish all the time

ElevationD:
Did he consent to treat Sanusi poorly when he was deposed by Ganduje?

Nope he didn't, infact i think he granted sls some special rites back

ElevationD:
Did he consent to treat Sanusi poorly when he was deposed by Ganduje?

Why did he accept to be used against a traditionally crowned Emir.

What comes around, goes around...

Point of correction, monarchs are not under LG but the SG

It is not true that the phenomenon with traditional institutions as experienced in Nigeria is the same all over the world. It is actually the other way round. Nigeria's case is an anomaly bequeathed to us by the British who subjugated the kings when they took control of the country through their system of indirect rule. It is an anomaly. All over the world, royal institutions are more ceremonial and divorced from govt functioning and control.
The traditional stools are under the LG by law. So why is the governor the appointing authority? You see the anomaly now?

chccho:

You see? This man thinks monarchs are under the state govt control because that's the prevailing order even though according to our constitution they are under the LG

Not true. Hausa word for King is Sarki not Emir. Emir is an Arabic word
