The former Emir of Kano, Muhammadu Sanusi 11, has opened up on how General Sani Abacha, former military Head of State, locked him up in Sokoto Prison.

Sanusi disclosed this at a triple fold event to mark his 60th birthday.

At the event, where HHMS11 SDG challenge, a United Nations initiative which he chairs the advisory council, was launched, Sanusi said he was accused of being a threat to national security at the time.

He also made some interesting revelation about his life.

"Not many people know that between June 1995 and June 1996, I was in Sokoto prison as a threat to national security under General Abacha," he said.

"Not many people know that between June 1995 and June 1996, I was in Sokoto prison as a threat to national security under General Abacha," he said.

People do know Sanusi went to jail but they believe it was for a murder of some igbo trader. Strangely enough some also believe this wouldn't be used against him despite battles with Abacha, Jonathan and Ganduje. Seriously someone should tell conspiracy kooks murder doesn't have a statute of limitations.

Everybody go just dey form victim. Gradually people go erode history.

If only Akaluka got the same opportunity before his body was hung on a stake in Kano.


Hiss!!!

I see Sanusi contesting in the elections come 2023, I see him loosing, I see him getting an appointment as a minister as compensation.

Abacha the iron man

Lol. For what reasons were you imprisoned sir?

From what I have read before, he was one of the leaders of a group that killed one or more non Muslims during that period.

From the story, the others were killed, he was spared and imprisoned instead because he's from a royal family and people begged for him.

Alright

He locked you up because you were encouraging Jihad and organized for the killing of an innocent Igboman

Just how Buhari was locked up by IBB
Just how Obasanjo was locked up by Abacha.
Just as Kanu is now locked up by Buhari.

From Emir to Minister.
You are a political illiterate.

For instigating a crowd to behead an igbo man in kano

All this radicals, even Abacha was weary of them. An adage says if you must eat with the devil use a long spoon.

You'd be thinking my brother my brother, bit they're planning your downfall.

"Dem ina pray on your downfall" BEWARE!
if Abacha can fear them who be youuuu?

Abacha locked u up to save u from execution after u guys killed GIDEON AKALUKA bcuz of lies against him desecrating ISLAM and others were executed

History will always remember that so don't change the narrative bcuz of 2023

...and you think you are not? I think Abacha has been justified....

Good to know!



Meanwhile, let all the living seek salvation in Christ Jesus.

This is the only way to guaranty eternal life.
Today is the appointed day for you to switch to life in Christ Jesus!

God bless Abacha

He had zero tolerance for Bullshit

Hmn....

Wiseandtrue:
If it were a southerner now, they would have pulled an ex-convict on him to prevent him from getting a job!

The moral lesson Do not allow your past to define your present!!!

The south needs to learn from the north, and stop pulling themselves down!

There's strength in unity!

Our Southern politicians are useless. I'm happy they're now retracing their paths. Fulanis have taken them for a ride for too long but they didn't realise this early enough. It's better late than never. If a southerner was to be caught in a trap, its his fellow southerner fulanis would bribe to get him. Whereas, if a Fulaniman sees his fellow stealing the whole of CBN If possible, he'd look the other way. Its really annoying.
