Before the law that dethroned Bayero was passed. Court made judgement that the parties should maintain status quo meaning that the law that ousted Bayero is against the judgment of the court.


Governor Yusuf is making terrible mistakes causing more damage to Sanusi

,

Sanusi wants the Emirate to remain one under a Fulani emir

what of the hausas that want there own emir?

Is it compulsory to unite under Fulani rule?

Can you remind me by what law did Gandollar remove Sanusi in the first place? What is the difference between the former governor removing Sanusi and the current governor removing Ado Bayero? I don't need rambling rants. I only need a short and straight answer.

Sanusi must go

Ganduje and his minions have been given a dose of their medicine, now it has become a bitter pill for them to swallow. Any attempt by Ganduje to upset Kano must be resisted and anyone caught formenting trouble should be jailed.

The judiciary can nullify act of parliament through the power of judicial review

Sanusi did not challenge his own removal in court

I believe that the jurisdiction of such annulment of the act of parliament is with the state high court not federal high court in respect of kingship titles.

What is the position of the state high court on the matter?

So why can't Ado Bayero toe the same dignified path? What is he dragging?

Because Ado Bayero was sure that he was illegally dethroned. The governor didn't level any offense against him

Federal high Court has jurisdiction if the complainants sue for human rights violations

Tinubu supporter go and sit down ..leave Kano state problem to Kano people and face the kidnapping, armed robbery and money rituals be-devilling Osun state.

Sanusi is the Emir of Kano and nothing is going to change or stop that.

Tinubu will surely lose Kano people in 2027 of he dare contest.

Fact!

Bayero the last Emir was kidnapped and killed by terrorist which prompted Sanusi to become king.

No be murder be that?

That throne duh get error before....Sanusi should allow the murdered Emir's son to rule in peace, after his death, then Sanusi if he's still alive should rule or his son.

Case closed.

Federal high Court has jurisdiction over human right issues

Adolphus Karibi-White, a former justice of the supreme court, said in the case of Olaniyi V. Aroyehum (1991) 5 NWLR (Pt. 194) 652 at 660 that “the right to be a traditional ruler is not a fundamental right that can be enforced under the provisions of the Nigerian Constitution”.

“… chieftaincy is not a matter of fundamental rights and cannot be enforced under the provisions of Section 31 of the Constitution. It cannot be seriously argued that there is a fundamental right to be a ‘Chief’. It is not a human right, even though it is a privilege claimed by human beings in an organised society to bring order to their mutual relationships. It is not such a right which the law can enforce by virtue merely of the claimant being a human being,”

The Apex court has said that the right to be an Emir is not a fundamental right under chapter four of the constitution, the federal high court sitting in Kano ought to have declined jurisdiction to continue to entertain the dispute over the chieftaincy matter in Kano.



Falana said a traditional ruler who was deposed by a governor without a fair hearing can approach the state high court for legal redress.

“But in challenging deposition or removal from the throne, the appropriate court to seek redress is the state high court,” he said.

“In Chief Joseph Odetoye Oyeyemi v Commissioner For Local Govt., Kwara State & Ors. (1992)2 SCNJ 266, the appellant sued the defendant at the Kwara state high court where he challenged the withdrawal of his recognition as the Bale of Oro without affording him the right to make a representation. He won at the high court and lost at the court of appeal.”

He said the decision of the appellate court was later overturned by the supreme court.

“The summary of the existing judicial authorities is that the federal high court lacks the jurisdictional competence to entertain any matter pertaining to the deposition of a traditional ruler unless the complaint is limited to his banishment or detention,” Falana said.

“In conclusion, judges and lawyers should realise that disputes arising from chieftaincy and other local matters are within the exclusive jurisdiction of the high court of each state of the federation, notwithstanding that the country is operating a distorted federal arrangement.”

Since you feel the son of the late Bayero should be allowed to rule: Why was Sanusi chosen by the kingmakers to be king ahead of Bayero in the first place?

Why didn't Bayero go to court or challenge the kingmakers when they chose Sanusi? He was Okay with that choice then and never questioned Sanusi's rule until Ganduje dethroned Sanusi and made Bayero the Emir.

Listen, Bayero should just respect himself. Being Emir is just a privilege; an opportunity to serve people; not a right.

If they say leave the throne, just move on. It is not the end of life. That was how Sanusi approached it when he was removed and that is part of the reasons I respect him.

If God's choice is for Sanusi to return as Emir, Bayero should just rest abeg.

...but a federal high court in Abuja is saying Bayero is the legitimate Emir of Kano Emirate... Sanusi is now playing for sympathy.... recently, the police in Kano state are not taking orders from the governor. Without the police? The government is powerless. Bayero is keeping his cards to his chest

federal high court in Abuja has no jurisdiction over chieftancy or kingship issues.

To all the commentators above , offering their advice, here's a news flash: Nobody! I MEAN, NO ONE! Gives a crap about your opinions.

Especially the disputing parties.

Your opinions don't matter because you are just "a unit of the masses" they control at will.

No hard feelings, just a fact you should ruminate on.

Femi falana is the one fooling them and creating all this problems all over Nigeria, by interpreting a case before the court in his opinion. If the judge rules against his opinion the party that was affected will keep on referring to falana opinion. With is very wrong. Falana should hold his opinion till after any judgment not before

Is the duty of a court to install a traditional ruler or that of a state government?

Okay, let's make it this way, let the state government take care of Sanusi, while the court should solely cater for Bayero

Obizumb 75, law doesn't operate on emotions. Or can as well go to court to represent Sanusi and the Governor. For now, is the judgement of the high court that we know

Sanusi must go
