The arrival of the dethroned Emir of Kano, Sanusi Lamido Sanusi in Lagos has been marked with significance as it signals an end to his detention in Awe community of Nasarawa State. His removal as Emir was confirmed on March 9 by Kano State Secretary to the Government Usman Alhaji, citing disrespect of lawful instructions and absence from official meetings and programs without justification. After a Federal High Court in Abuja granted an interim release order, he was moved to Abuja in the company of Governor Nasir El-Rufai of Kaduna State. His arrival in Lagos was captured in a video shared on Instagram.
