Kano Govt Hits FG Over Sealing Of Emir’s Palace by Bobloco(op): 8:07pm On Dec 06, 2024

The Kano State Government has fingered the Federal Government in the blockade of Kano Emir’s palace on Friday.

Armed police and operatives of the Department of State Services (DSS) had blocked the entrance to the palace, creating a tense atmosphere.

Reports say Emir Muhammadu Sanusi II was billed to address some economists on the controversy generated by the tax reforms bills before the National Assembly.

The emir was also scheduled to accompany his newly appointed district head Munir Sanusi to Bichi.

The security operatives sealed the entrance to the palace while the emir was holding court at the outer palace. He later led Friday congregational prayer at the Kano Central Mosque outside the palace.

The Secretary to the State government Abdullahi Baffa Bichi, reacted angrily to the blockade of the palace, pointing accusing fingers at the federal government.

Bichi spoke on a local radio on the development.

He said, “We were really surprised waking up to this development with police sealing off the entrance to the palace of Kano Emir, Muhammadu Sanusi II.

“What surprises us the most is that Kano is peaceful but it’s just a few people that have backing from Abuja that don’t want Kano to be peaceful.

“The emir was to escort his district head of Bichi, Wamban Kano, pray with him there and then come back. We were all invited and then we woke up to this. We asked the reason and they told us it was an order given to them from above. Who is there above, it’s the Federal Government.

“We in Kano have resolved to stay in peace, peace will reign and nobody will come to Kano and destabilize that.

“The emir has appointed the district head and it stands, he will take him to his place and whenever he is ready to go there we are going there with him, no going back.”

If you're wise enough, you can connect the remaining dots to see the rooting of all these political hullabaloos.

Why would he be arrested?.
What is his crime?
Constitutionally the state is responsible for appointing or demoting a traditional ruler?
Sanusi was duly appointed by the state governor in line with the constitution. And he is carrying out his functions. Why can they not let him be.

Is it just me or this current state government in Kano is the weakest in the history of state governments in Kano.

Since its inception, the only time you see it mentioned in mainstream media news is when it has to do with Emirship tussle.

No economic drive, no news on Commercial activities, ICT, Agriculture, or at least those fake phantom foreign investors that their colleagues in other states arrange for photo-ops.. and this is supposed to be the second largest state in Nigeria by population..

Speaks alot on how the states and their emperors draw Nigeria backwards Instead of vice versa..

Emir Sanusi is an economist and concerning the Tax reform bills he has alot to discuss which federal government did not want him talk about...so he should just maintain his stand as emir that he his and not as economist.

This governor is not thinking straight at all and thinks he is playing with children residing in the FG?
Who made Kano peaceful when the last purported hunger protest it's was Kano we saw people stealing government properties,from laptops to even removing metal gates. This governor should be ashamed of himself. He will learn the hard way if he is not careful.

Federal government sealing Kano Emirate House...

Wow.
Unitary government system at work. The system enjoyed by northern Nigeria for more than half a century.
The system used to channel most of oil proceeds from the south to the north through proliferation of too many states and local government areas by northern military dictators in the old Northern region.

Now even the people who had no idea that Emir Sanusi was going to speak on the tax issue are now aware and will be eager to hear his opinion. Tinubu is obviously receiving very bad advice or wrong information regarding this Kano issue. They are just creating more enemies and hurdles for him ahead of 2027.

None. Just APC/FG /Ganduje don't want peace. They are trying real hard to provoke a crisis but the state government is not taking the bait.
