The Kaduna State Governor, Nasiru el-Rufai, told journalists on Friday during his visit to Awe where the dethroned Emir of Kano, Muhammad Sanusi was banished to that Sanusi will relocate to Lagos State, Nigeria’s commercial nerve-centre..
Awe is a rural community in Nasarawa State. El-Rufai said that the dethroned Emir will be leaving for Lagos through Abuja.
The Emir’s release from detention comes after a Federal High Court sitting in Abuja granted an interim order releasing Sanusi from detention.
The ruling judge in the case, Justice Anwuli Chikere, granted the order in line with the prayers on the exparte motion filed on behalf of the deposed Emir by Mr. Lateef Fagbemi SAN.
Below are some photos of Governor El-Rufai and Sanusi enroute to Abuja from Nasarawa where he is expected to take a flight down to Lagos.
