Chidi Samuel| Deposed Emir of Kano, Muhammad Sanusi II, has that his removal by the Kano State government was so badly handled that he could have challenged it in court but has decided to move on.
Sanusi was dethroned on Monday by the Kano state government and banished to Awe, in Nasarawa state.
An Abuja high court ordered his release on Friday and has since relocated to Lagos.
But in a video making the rounds on social media, the embattled monarch said his dethronement letter by Kano government was poorly written and it would have been easy for him to proceed to the court to challenge it.
“I have done what I could in six years, I’m moving on. I don’t want to go back. The truth is, if I had wanted to go back, the dethronement letter was so badly written, it was not done professionally. The easiest thing is just to go to court.”
“It’s simple, fair hearing, ‘did you query him? Did you ask him to defend himself? Did you even call him to ask him any question?’ That’s all but I think we should go on to a new phase in life.”
Sanusi maintained that his removal is not an issue as he has no reason to be sad or depressed, even if the situation could be difficult for him.
