Kano State government has dismissed claims that the Appeal Court judgement has removed Muhammadu Sanusi II as the Emir of Kano, describing it as a deliberate misinterpretation of the court order.

This was made known by the state Attorney-General and Commissioner for Justice, Haruna Isah Dederi, who jointly addressed newsmen in Kano yesterday with the commissioner for information, Ibrahim Waiya.
He explained that the claim that the 16th Emir of Kano has been removed by the court is worrisome seeing the various headlines intended to mislead the general public by misrepresenting the facts.

He said, “It will be recalled that on January 10, 2025, the Court of Appeal had delivered judgment which upheld the repeal of the Kano Emirate Council Law, 2019 and also set aside the ruling of the Federal High Court, Kano, which nullified the steps taken by the Kano State government under the Kano Emirate Council (Repeal) Law 2024.

“Being dissatisfied with this judgment of the Court of Appeal, Alh Aminu Babba Dan’agundi filed an appeal against the said decision at the Supreme Court of Nigeria. In the normal course of judicial process, Alh Aminu Babba Dan’agundi then filed an application for the stay of the execution of the judgment of the Court of Appeal.

“The respected Panel of Justices heard and granted the application for stay pending the hearing and determination of the subsisting appeal before the Supreme Court. This is a normal and usual routine application for the maintenance of status quo pending the determination of substantive appeal.

“It is, however, worrisome seeing the various captions and headlines deliberately intended to mislead the general public by misrepresenting the facts.

“We hereby use this medium to call upon those involved in these negative and destructive misrepresentations to desist from interfering in judicial processes. The judiciary as a sacred institution must be jealously respected and guarded for the preservation of peace and orderliness of society,” he stated.

He further added that the court that entertained the application of Aminu Babba did not set aside the judgment delivered earlier on January 10. “That judgment is still valid and subsisting, until the determination of the appeal before the Supreme Court of Nigeria.

“Once again, we call on the general public to resist any provocation and continue to be law-abiding. The Kano State government has already instructed its lawyers to closely study the outcome for the determination of the next line of action in accordance with our extant laws.

“We thank the entire people of the State for their understanding and constant prayers for the state and the nation in general,” he said.

On his part, the commissioner for Information, Waiya, further stated that there is a deliberate attempt at creating confusion among members of the public by some individuals.

“We wish to inform you that it is not true that the court in the recent order it issued set aside the earlier judgement. Those spreading this fake story are deliberately trying to destabilise the state by threatening the peace being enjoyed in the state,” he stated.
