  • The development comes one year after Abdullahi Ganduje, Kano governor, dethroned Sanusi as the emir of Kano.

Muhammad Sanusi II, former emir of Kano, was on Sunday turbaned as the leader of Tijaniyya Islamic sect worldwide.

Ekohotblog reports that Sanusi was turbaned as the Khalifa of Tijaniyya sect in Nigeria by Sheikh Mahi Ibrahim Inyass, grand Khalifa of Tijaniyya movement, on Sunday in Senegal.

In March, the former Emir was announced as the leader of the Tijaniyya sect at its annual gathering in Sokoto.

The two factions of the sect appointed the former Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN) governor as their leader during the Maulud celebration of Inyass.

Auwal Shuaib, secretary-general of the Tijaniyya movement of Nigeria, confirmed the development in a statement.
