Barring any last minute change of plans, the Emir of Kano, Sanusi Lamido Sanusi may be dethroned by the Kano State Governor, Abdullahi Ganduje in the next two weeks.
The Kano State Legislative House has just tabled eight count charges on Emir Sanusi Lamido Sanusi, including breach of Oaths of Office and Allegiance, as well as Abuse of Privileges, misappropriation of funds inter alia by an overwhelming majority.
A high power Special Investigative Committee has been constituted and mandated to report back to the House in two weeks.
The president of the Senate, Bukola Saraki, and governor of Kaduna State, Nasir El-Rufai, had made spirited appeals to Kano State governor, Abdullahi Ganduje, not to depose the Emir Sanusi.
