Kano is experiencing a gradual return to calmness despite tensions surrounding the Emir of Kano throne. Emir Muhammadu Sanusi II remains reinstated, now into the sixth day, despite ongoing legal challenges to his Emirship.
While the Sunusi camp insists he is the rightful Emir, having been reappointed by Gov. Abba Yusuf, a Federal High Court sitting in Kano issued an order countering his reinstatement until a suit challenging it was resolved.
District Heads and members of the Tijjaniyya Shura Council, a council of Islamic Sect, have affirmed their loyalty to him. 
Other prominent individuals such as Khalifa Sayyadi Bashir, Khalifa Abdullahi Uwaisu, Sheikh Ibrahim Shehu Maihula and Barrister Habibu Dan Almajiri, have also endorsed Sunusi, who claim to the throne is being challenged in the court.
