Breaking: Deposed Emir Bayero speaks as Sanusi takes over

Deposed Emir of Kanu, Aminu Bayero, has opened up after his removal as the 15th Emir of Kano.

He called for calm and adherence to the rule of law.

Speaking from the mini-palace where he has taken residence since his return to the state, the former monarch emphasized that no one is above the law and assured the public that justice will prevail.

In a public address delivered in Hausa, Bayero urged the people of Kano to remain law-abiding and patient as the legal process unfolds.

“I call on the people to remain law-abiding while awaiting the outcome of the legal process in this tussle,” he stated.

He appealed to the authorities to act justly in resolving the matter, highlighting Kano’s significance in Nigeria.

“Kano is a very influential state in Nigeria. Whatever affects Kano affects Nigeria. May peace reign in Kano. We pray for Allah to bless Kano with responsible and just leaders. Justice is the way to go on every issue,” Bayero asserted.

Reaffirming his commitment to the rule of law, Bayero vowed to accept the legal outcome, whatever it may be. “There will be justice. Nobody is above the law. We will accept whatever the law says. I appreciate all the people who have shown concern,” he added.

Concluding his address, Bayero expressed his hopes for peace and protection for the people of Kano. “As I said, justice will take its course. We will keep on praying for peace in Kano State. May Allah the Almighty protect us,” he prayed.
