Meanwhile, Legit.ng reported that Kano-based lawyer, Umar Sa’ad Hassan, interpreted the federal high court’s ruling on the Kano Emirate tussle.

Hassan said while the Kano state government and Aminu Ado Bayero camps are giving different interpretations, the ruling means that Sanusi Lamido ceased to be Emir of Kano.

In an exclusive chat with Legit, Hasan explained that Governor Abba Yusuf’s action to reinstate Sanusi as Emir was declared void because it was done after an injunction was granted.
