One of the wives of the deposed Emir of Kano, Muhammadu Sanusi II, visited him yesterday at his new abode in Awe town in Nasarawa State.

She arrived in a white SUV with tinted glasses and was escorted by mobile policemen and officers of the Department of State Security (DSS) who were conveyed in two Toyota Hilux vans with Kaduna State Government number plates.

The Emir of Awe, Alhaji Umar Isa Abubakar; Chief of Azara, Dr Kabir Musa Ibrahim and Chairman of Awe Local Government Area, Alhaji Umar Da-Akano, were also said to have met with the deposed emir.
The people of the host community in Awe said they were overwhelmed with Sanusi’s presence but unhappy with his dethronement.
A resident, Mallam Ibrahim Usman Fulani said: “I am a Fulani man who rears cows. When I heard the news, I rushed to town to confirm. I wanted to travel but I will not until I observe Friday congregational prayer with him. Many people are waiting for that historic moment,” he said.
Upon arrival, Sanusi II was taken to a two-bedroom bungalow with a guest house wing where he spent the night.
The apartment belongs to an official of Awe Local Government Area.
The place is a temporary abode for the ex-emir as another ‘befitting’ accommodation was being prepared for him.
