Jubilation erupted in Kano yesterday as Emir Muhammadu Sanusi II emerged victorious in his court battle against Aminu Ado Bayero, the 15th Emir of Kano.
The Appeal Court’s ruling struck out Bayero’s fundamental human rights case, which challenged Emir Sanusi’s position.
The court declared that Bayero’s case lacked merit and that the Federal High Court had no jurisdiction to intervene in matters related to the Kano State Emirate Council law.
The ruling is seen as a significant endorsement of the legal framework governing the Kano Emirate and a decisive affirmation of Emir Sanusi’s rightful position.
With this victory, Emir Sanusi’s leadership and authority have been further solidified, bringing an end to the prolonged legal drama.
The people of Kano are celebrating this victory, not just for Emir Sanusi, but also for the integrity of the state’s traditional institutions.
The court’s decision is expected to allow Emir Sanusi to continue leading the Kano Emirate without further challenges.
The ruling has been hailed by Emir Sanusi’s supporters, with celebrations erupting across Kano.
