Why Sanusi Was Removed By Ganduje – Kwankwaso Reveals.
The Former Governor Rabiu Kwankwaso, of Kano State has revealed why the former Emir of Kano, Muhammad Sanusi, was dethroned by the state Governor, Abdullahi Ganduje.
The People’s Democratic Party chieftain said; “you dethroned him for your inferiority complex against him, nothing more.”
He further stated in a statement released through his Principal Private Secretary, Muhammad Inuwa Ali on Tuesday that “the fears of high esteem and calibre, plus influence the Emir possesses made Ganduje jittery and insisted on dethroning him.”
“We know that Ganduje always feels diminished and inferior in the presence of the Emir, and we know that Gov Ganduje harbours a pathological hatred for the Kano Traditional Institution, that was why he had to dethrone him.”
“We also know that Ganduje was madly obsessed with reversing everything that Sen. Kwankwaso did in the state. And we are aware, for these reasons, Gov. Ganduje was set, ab initio, to destroy the Kano Emirate. And Emir Sanusi II was marked to be the first victim.”
“Let me also put on record that Emir Sanusi II was abducted and illegally dethroned by Gov. Ganduje and his cohorts because of the Emir’s progressive ideas on various issues that affect the people of the State.”
He further stated that the removal of the former Emir had nothing to do with former President Goodluck Jonathan.
He said, Everyone knows that Ganduje’s desperation to obtain the $1.8 billion loan and the former Emir’s criticism of the loan is what fuelled the illegal removal of Emir Sanusi II; it had nothing to do with former President Jonathan.
“It is common knowledge that the Emir was too progressive for Gov. Ganduje’s liking and that was exactly why after his illegal removal and the dismemberment of the Kano Emirate Council, he appointed Emirs that will not question his ill-advised decisions even if they are against the interest of the state and its people.”
