Ex-Head of State, General Ibrahim Badamasi Babangida (rtd) has warned that the Presidency has absolutely no role to play in the picking and appointment of the Emir of Kano even as he said that it is the responsibility of the state government to appoint the Emir and Governor Rabiu Kwankwaso has taken the action.
Warning that no harm must happen to Emir Sanusi, IBB said: "God made him the Emir and so I don’t see why people cannot come together and support who is the Emir in the interest of the state and for the interest of this country”.
IBB, who congratulated the new Emir of Kano, Sanusi Lamido Sanusi in an interview in his uphill residence in the capital of Niger State, Minna, said the alleged involvement of the FG in the siege on the Emir’s Palace is not acceptable and said he wants to believe that such never happened.
Responding to a reporters question, he said, “I am glad you used that word alleged, as an elder statesman, I don’t work on allegation. Fortunately, I have ask them both the federal and state government to know exactly what is happening”.
