The Correct pronunciation is Amir, a short form of Amir-Al-Mumineen (Commander/Leader of the Faithful). Emir is the English corruption of Amir.

if is pastor now you people we be talking nonsense, Senusi is a Muslim religious leader not a tradition leader, infact I pity my fellow Christian s who criticize affluent pastors while Muslim leaders enjoy state patronage , we in the north know the kind of influence Muslim wade in the Name of traditional leaders, imagine a small Christian girl will be kidnapped and kept in their cosody in the name converting them to islam, in fact postors should have a Vecarate council

This vintage car of HRH, Sanusi Lamido Sanusi is reportedly owned by Nubar Gulbenkian. According to reports, Nubar Gulbenkian was an eccentric Armenian-British millionaire who was crazy about Rolls Royces. He had many custom made Rolls Royces (the Rolls Royce company was not always happy with the designs that he chose for his cars). This particular car was designed by Gulbenkian in 1952. It’s a Rolls Royce Silver Wraith, but its lights are different from any other Silver Wraith.
The Emir of Kano, Abdullahi Bayero (Emir from 1926-1953) bought the car shortly afterwards. Bayero died and the car was inherited by his successor, Alhaji Mohammed Sanusi I. The car was used to convey Queen Elizabeth II when she toured Northern Nigeria in 1956.

The car was also inherited by the late Emir of Kano, Alhaji Ado Bayero and it has now been inherited by the current Emir, Muhammad Sanusi II. We went digging to see what makes this car a unique car and why is it that the royal family has refused to let go this car despite been used by 3 diffrent kings now. We did some reviews and what we found was amazing…
