There was a special prayer held by unrelenting supporters of the dethroned 15th Emir of Kano, Aminu Ado Bayero, for him to reclaim his throne.

The supporters, in their large numbers, gathered at an open field to pray for the monarch’s well-being and to help him reclaim his stool.

Recall that the Kano State Governor, Abba Kabir Yusuf, on Thursday, deposed Ado Bayero along with four other emirs.

The governor, thereafter, appointed the former Governor of the Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN) Muhammad Sanusi, as the 16th Emir of Kano.

Following his dethronememt, Ado Bayero, however, returned to Kano on Saturday and went straight to a mini palace in Nassarawa.

His supporters thronged the airport to welcome him and later accompanied him to the mini palace.

Meanwhile, a series of protests have rocked the ancient city over the Kano emirate tussle and the dissolution of other emirates.
