Bayero is the son of late Emir Ado Bayero.

Sanusi II was dethroned and banished to Nasarawa on Monday, March 9, 2019.

The Kano State Executive Council approved his immediate removal on Monday.

The Secretary to the State Government, Mr Usman Alhaji, announced the unanimous decision of the council at a news conference and said the removal of the monarch followed alleged disrespect to lawful instructions by the state governor.

According to him, the persistent refusal of the Emir to attend official meetings and programmes organised by the government without any justification amounting to insubordination is part of what has informed his removal.

He said that it was on record that Sanusi had been found breaching Part 3 Section 13 (a-e) of the Kano State Emirate law 2019.

He said if such attitude was left unchecked, it would destroy the good and established image of the Kano Emirate.

“This removal is made after due consultation with the relevant stakeholders and in compliance with Part 3 section 13 of the Kano State Emirate law 2019 and other reasons stated above.

“The removal was reached to safeguard the sanctity, culture, tradition, religion and prestige of the Kano Emirate built over a thousand years.’’

Sanusi, who was the 14th Emir of Kano under the Fulani dynasty, was appointed as the Emir of Kano on June 8, 2014 after he was sacked as governor of CBN by former President Goodluck Jonathan.

He was born on July 31, 1961 in Kano to a ruling class Fulani family of the Sullubawa clan.

On June 1, 2009, Sanusi was nominated as governor of the Central Bank of Nigeria by President Umaru Musa Yar’Adua; his appointment was confirmed by the Nigerian Senate on 3 June 2009.

Sanusi was selected to succeed his granduncle, Ado Bayero, as the Emir of Kano on June 8, 2014.

Meanwhile, a team of security operatives have stormed the palace of the Emir.

Bayero was formerly the Emir of Bichi Emirate; He was named the emir of Bichi in 2019 after Kano State governor Umar Ganduje divided the Kano Emirate into four.

He is the son of the 13th Emir of Kano, Alhaji Dr. Ado Abdullahi Bayero, who reigned from 1963 till his death in 2014.

Bayero has held different traditional titles in the last three decades. In 1990, he was appointed Danmajen Kano; later he became Danburan Kano, then Turakin Kano to Sarkin Dawakin Tsakar Gida and finally to Wamban Kano.

He is now the 15th Emir of the Fulani in the Kano Emirate.
