The motorcade of the deposed Emir of Kano, Aminu Ado Bayero, are being readied for movement to the emir’s Palace.
The Emir who was deposed alongside emirs of Rano, Bichi, Karaye and Gaya by the Kano State Governor, Abba Kabir Yusuf, after the repeal of Emirates Council Law, returned to the city in the early hours of Saturday.
Governor Yusuf had earlier ordered the deposed emirs to vacate official residences and hand over properties to Commissioner of Local Government and Chieftaincy Affairs.
Despite the directive, Bayero, returned to Kano and moved into a mini palace in Nassarawa, a development that led to the governor calling for his arrest, but the police vowed to obey court order against the reinstatement of Muhammadu Sanusi II as Emir of Kano.
