Tension in Kano as deposed Emir plans Sallah Durbar with district heads

As the controversy continues to trail the Kano Emirate tussle, the 15th Emir of Kano, Aminu Ado Bayero has directed his District Heads to come to the Sallah Durbar celebration in the state.

The directive which was contained in a circular by Bayero’s senior counsellor and Galadiman Kano, Abbas Sanusi, asked the District Heads to join the 15th Emir in the ancient city of Kano for the Sallah and Durbar celebration

“We are directing all the district heads of the emirate to come along with their village heads, horse riders, and praise singers for the festivities.

“You are directed to come to the Gidan Nassarawa palace of Aminu Ado Bayero on Saturday by 11 am. Afterwards, there will be a meeting with the District Heads for discussion on the preparation for the Sallah Durbar celebration,” the Tuesday circular stated.

Recall that the Kano State government had repealed the Kano Emirate law and reinstated Muhammad Sanusi II as the 16th Emir of Kano.

Emir Sanusi II has taken over the main palace at the Kano Emirate while the 15th Emir, Bayero occupies the Gidan Nassarawa Emir’s guest house which is known as the mini palace.
