Emir of Kano, Muhammadu Sanusi II

Emir of Kano, Muhammadu Sanusi II, has applauded the State Governor, Abba Kabir Yusuf and members of the House of Assembly over his reinstatement.

According to him, they did a lot for the history of Kano state and Nigeria at large.

Sanusi while speaking shortly after receiving his reinstatement letter from Governor Yusuf at the Africa House, Kano Government House, on Friday, said his reinstatement is a testament that no man can take what God has given.

According to Sanusi, God has preordained time and cause for everything and everyone, adding he gives leadership to whosoever he wants.

He said, “The Arabians used to say in everything that we are going to witness, there is a lesson that shows us that God is there. Whatever that is happening to an individual is preordained by Allah and to those that are sensible enough, it’s a lesson.

“Time will not permit for long talks. Whatever we will say, we have said it when we were leaving. We made it clear that God has preordained time and cause for everything and everyone. He gave leadership to whom he wants and at the time he wants. When He gives, no one can take it away and when he takes it away, nobody can take it back.

“My Governor and our assembly members, you will not understand the gravity of what you did for the history of Kano and the country at large. Among Kano Emirs, it started from Bagauda over 1000 years ago. In this year’s, it was once that we had Emir Muhammadu Koguna who was overthrown and he came back after some days. This shows that in 1000 years, there has been no case like what happened now.

“This thing that has been brought to Kano, had it been it was allowed, one day we will wake up with Emir of Kumbotso, Bichi, Fagge and 44 Emirs. So what the government and the assembly is a rescue mission.”
