Emir Muhammadu Sanusi II emerged from the inner palace to the outer palace, where Emirs traditionally receive their subjects and conduct court sittings. He was met with cheers from hundreds of supporters as he majestically rode a horse.
The state Deputy Governor, Aminu Abdussalam Gwarzo, earlier told newsmen that “nobody can change their position on the reinstatement of Muhammadu Sanusi II because they did it legally.”
He said, “The so-called court order banning them from reinstating Sanusi was not officially submitted to them, and as at the time they did the reinstatement, it was after working hours, which shows that anything coming from the court on that matter is already late.”
