Unpatriotic politicians told Ado Bayero to challenge dethronement – Kano gov
Governor Kabir Yusuf of Kano State says the dethroned Emir of Kano, Aminu Ado Bayero, is being incited to go against the State government and constituted authority.
Speaking through his Chief Press Secretary, Sanusi Bature, Yusuf said some unpatriotic politicians implored Bayero to fight back after his dethronement.
Bature said the scramble for the emir of the ancient city was political and unnecessary.
He spoke when he featured on Arise TV’s Morning Show on Wednesday, stating that the unpatriotic politicians are behind the court case challenging Bayero deposition by the Kano State Government.
Bature recounted that Emir Muhammed Sanusi never challenged the former state government when he was deposed in 2019.

Recall that Governor Yusuf had dethroned Aminu Bayero while reinstating Sanusi as the Emir of Kano in May.
This followed the decision of the state Assembly to repeal the 2019 Kano Emirate law.
However, Bature said: “We wanted him to vacate the palace because it’s used as a guest house and a graveyard, we want it renovated quickly so that it can serve its purpose. When the governor reinstated the Emir and had given 48 hours for all the other emirs to vacate their palaces.
“Ado Bayero in his own wisdom decided to remove his family and everything belonging to him from the palace. When I was there, the place was so empty when Sanusi entered.
“But some unpatriotic politicians from and outside Kano decided to ignite him to come back to Kano and strike a fight which is unnecessary. Some of the unpatriotic politicians are behind the filing of the court case, like it or not, there is politics here.
“Emir Aminu Ado Bayero was appointed after the dethronement of Sanusi but why didn’t Sanusi fight back at that time?”
