A Federal High Court in Kano has ordered the Police to evict the reinstated Emir of Kano, Sanusi Muhammadu Sanusi II, from the Emir’s Palace in the Kofar Kudu area of the Kano metropolis.
Presiding Judge, Justice S. A. Amobeda while ruling on an ex-parte motion filed by the deposed Emir of Kano, Aminu Bayero, on Tuesday, the court also ordered the police to ensure all rights and privileges due to Emir Bayero were given to him.
The court also restrained the Nigeria Police Force (NPF), the Inspector General of Police, the Commissioner of Police in the State, and the seven other respondents in the suit from denying Bayero the use of his official residence at the Emir’s Palace in Kofar Kudu area of the city, as well as enjoyment of all rights and privileges accrued to him by being the Emir of Kano.
The judge after hearing from M.L. Yusufari, SAN, appearing with Abdul Muhammad, SAN, Abdul Adamu Fagge, Esq, Abdulrazak A. Ahmad, Esq, and Bashiru Ibrahim, Esq, who are counsels for the applicant, granted the order, saying the move was in the interest of justice and the maintenance of peace in Kano State.
Recall that a Kano State High Court had given similar orders against Emir Bayero on Monday.
