In a significant legal development, the Court of Appeal sitting in Abuja has ruled to halt the enforcement of its January 10 judgment regarding the Emirate Council Law of Kano State. This ruling effectively removes Sanusi Lamido Sanusi from his position as the Emir of Kano, pending a final decision from the Supreme Court.
The court’s recent decision sets aside a previous order from the Federal High Court in Kano, which nullified the Kano State Government’s actions under the Kano State Emirate Council (Repeal) Law 2024. This law had dissolved the five emirates established in 2019 and reinstated Sanusi II as the Emir. The implications of this ruling are far-reaching, as the final determination of Sanusi’s reinstatement now awaits the Supreme Court’s pronouncement.
As the situation unfolds, further details will be provided. Stay tuned for updates on this critical issue that continues to shape the political landscape in Nigeria.
