Kano state governor, Abba Yusuf has gotten a 48 hours ultimatum from the Northern Lawyers’ Forum to reverse the reinstatement of Emir Muhammad Sanusi II.

The lawyers at a briefing on Tuesday in Abuja, said that Sanusi’s reinstatement is “unconstitutional” and “contrary to the traditions and customs of the Kano Emirate”.

The forum’s Director General, Barr Umar Sadiq Abubakar, argued that Sanusi’s initial removal was in line with the laws and traditions of the Emirate, arguing that his reinstatement would “create chaos and undermine the rule of law” in the state.

Abubakar accused Governor Yusuf of making a mockery of the country’s judiciary by willfully disobeying a Federal High Court ruling restraining him from reinstating Sanusi.
