Court Stops Emirate Law Repeal, Sacks Others .


Kano State High Court presided over by Justice Amina Aliyu perpetually restrained AlhajiAminu Ado Bayero from parading himself as the Emir of Kano.

The court also barred the deposed Emirs of Bichi, Rano, Gaya and Karaye from parading themselves as emirs.

The judge ruled in a suit filed against the five deposed emirs by the Kano State government. The suit followed the repeal of the Kano Emirate Law 2019 on May 23, 2024, by the Kano State House of Assembly, abolishing the five emirates created from the old Kano Emirate by ex-Governor Umar Ganduje.

On May 24, 2024, Governor Abba Yusuf signed the Kano Emirate Law 2024 and reinstated the 14th Emir of Kano, MuhammaduSanusi, as the 16th Emir, and dissatisfied with the order deposing him as Emir, Bayero approached the Federal High Court, Kano and obtained an ex parte order, restraining the governor and the police from sacking him as the emir, pending the determination of his human rights application.

With the granting of the ex parte, Bayero remained at the Nasarawa mini palace, while Sanusi occupied the GidanRumfa palace in Kano state.
