Abuja (Precise Post) – The dethroned Emir of Kano, Muhammadu Sanusi, on Sunday, made his first return to the North more than five months after his ouster.

Sanusi who was dethroned on March 9, 2020 by the Governor of Kano State, Abdullahi Ganduje, arrived Kaduna on Sunday.

Sanusi is scheduled to visit Governor Nasir El-Rufai, who is his long time friend, at the Kaduna State Government House.

The former Emir was received by a large crowd of supporters on arrival in Kaduna

Some of them displayed 2023 campaign posters with his photograph on their vehicles.

Sanusi, an ex-central bank Governor had frosty relations with Kano Governor Abdullahi Ganduje since 2017.

His supporters believe he was sacked for opposing Mr. Ganduje’s re-election last year.

The former monarch was seen as a reformist and had been critical of some government policies – a stance that frequently put him at loggerheads with ruling politicians.

Precise Post recalls that after he was banished from Kano state he was taken to Nasarawa where he resided for a while before he relocated to Lagos State.
