Kano emirate tussle: Bayero’s supporters attacked my palace, removed my gate – Emir Sanusi
Emir of Kano, Muhammadu Sanusi II, has alleged attack on his palace gate by supporters of the deposed 15th Emir of Kano, Aminu Ado Bayero.
Sanusi alleged that Bayero’s supporters removed one of his palace gates during the attack.
A statement by the Kano Emirate Media Team, signed by Sadam Yakasai, said Aminu’s supporters struck the Kofar-Kudu palace, where Sanusi resides.
The statement said: “They broke the gate and attacked the guards, injuring some of them. They smashed the police vehicles in the palace.
“Aminu deliberately passed through the emir’s palace road instead of taking the proper route from Koki to Nassarawa, and his hoodlums decided to attack Gidan Rumfa.
“This is not the first time he has passed through the area. He had done that previously after he visited his Mandawari residence. He did that to intimidate the people of the area.”
