Kano: Dethroned Emir Bayero chief of staff pays allegiance to Emir Sanusi

Ahmed Ado Bayero, the chief of staff to the deposed Emir of Kano, Aminu Ado Bayero, has dumped the former emir and paid allegiance to Emir Muhammadu Sanusi II.

Mr Bayero, who is also the district head of Kumbotso, paid his allegiance at the Emir’s Palace, Gidan Rumfa on Wednesday.

In a video footage obtained by DAILY NIGERIAN the former chief of staff, who is a younger brother to the deposed monarch, was was seen genuflecting before Mr Sanusi to pay his allegiance.

Recall that Mr Sanusi was appointed the 16th emir of Kano by Governor Abba Yusuf in May, following the repealing of the Kano Emirates Law of 2019, which dissolved all the five emirates created by the then governor, Abdullahi Ganduje.

Although the deposed emir has challenged his removal in court, he has also refused to vacate the Nassarawa royal residence, which he has been occupying since his dethronement.

On July 15, a Kano State High Court issued a perpetual injunction restraining him from parading himself as the Emir of Kano.

The court, presided over by Justice Amina Aliyu, also barred four other deposed monarchs from parading themselves as Emirs of Bichi, Rano, Karaye, and Gaya.

The state high court further issued a Form 48, which is a notice of consequence of disobedience of court order and liability to imprisonment, to Mr Bayero and the Inspector General of Police.

But despite the judgement, Mr Bayero has continued to perform royal duties within and outside the royal residence.

JUST IN: Lagos shuts Idera market over dirty condition

The Lagos state government has shut down the Idera Market in the Oshodi-Isolo Local Council Development Area over unsanitary conditions.

Corps Marshal of the Lagos Environmental Sanitation Corps, popularly known as KAI, Maj. Olaniyi Olatunbosun (rtd), said ‘the market stinks’.

He said: “We shut Idera market because it stinks. They had probably not cleared the drainages for over one year and everywhere was smelly. So we shut the market based on the commissioner’s directive. And when they are ready to do the proper thing, the market will be reopened. It might take days or weeks, but it has to be clean.

READ ALSO:

“Though they complained of ineffective PSP operators in clearing their waste, we found out that they most likely don’t even patronise the PSP operators. Besides, Idera is not the only market in the Oshodi area so let them do the right thing by cleaning their space and the market will be reopened.”

Two people remanded for allegedly unleashing dogs on police

An Iyaganku Chief Magistrates’ Court in Ibadan has ordered the remand of Olayinka Akinware, 35, and Tunji Adesina, 29, for allegedly using four dogs to prevent police officers from arresting a suspect.

The court, presided over by Magistrate M. Mudashiru, did not take the plea of the defendants due to lack of jurisdiction and directed that they be remanded in Abolongo Correctional Facility pending legal advice from the Directorate of Public Prosecution (DPP).

The case has been adjourned until December 18 for further mention.

According to the Prosecution Counsel, Inspector Femi Oluwadare, Akinware and Adesina are facing charges of conspiracy and prevention of arrest. The incident occurred on September 12 at around 8:30 a.m. at their residence in Oluwo, Ibadan.

The suspects allegedly assaulted four police officers, DSP Festus Fagbohun, ASP Ojo Tolulope, Inspector Sariki Mohammed, and Corporal Tosin Olubode, with bamboo tree branches while unleashing their Pitbull, Rottweiler, and two Eskimo dogs to prevent the lawful arrest of a suspect, Korede Adeoye, who was staying at their house.

The prosecution stated that the offenses are in violation of Sections 332 and 516 of the Criminal Code Laws of Oyo State, which prescribe life imprisonment for the offender if found guilty.

This case has drawn significant attention due to the unusual circumstances surrounding the use of dogs in obstructing law enforcement.
