Ganduje distances self from alleged plot to dethrone Emir of Kano, Sanusi
The National Chairman of the ruling All Progressives Congress, APC, Dr. Abdullahi Ganduje, has said that he was not part of an alleged plot to dethrone Muhammadu Sanusi II as the Emir of Kano.
The APC chairman spoke in a statement by his Senior Special Assistant on Public Enlightenment, Chief Oliver Okpala.
Ganduje made the clarification while reacting to a report making the rounds on social media captioned “Ganduje leads a fresh plot to dethrone Emir Mohammad Sanusi”, which alleged “a fresh plot” by Ganduje “to dethrone Muhammad Sanusi as the Emir of Kano”.
Reacting to the publication, the immediate past Kano State governor said there was nothing true about the claims, insisting that he had nothing to do with the alleged plot to oust Emir Sanusi II.
He reiterated that he was no longer the governor of the state, nor was he the Speaker of the State House of Assembly and could not be linked with any plot or plan to dethrone or enthrone anyone as Emir of Kano.
According to the statement, Ganduje was not also involved in any plan to advise the 15th Emir of Kano, Aminu Ado Bayero, to abdicate the throne as alleged.
“It should be made categorically clear that Dr. Ganduje has nothing to do with the present enthronement or dethronement of Emir Mohammad Sanusi in Kano state.
“It should be noted that Dr. Ganduje is no longer the Executive Governor of Kano state or the speaker of the Kano state house of assembly and therefore cannot have anything to do further with the Emirship of Kano.
“It is laughable that Dr. Ganduje who has left office as Governor for some years now would be accused of masterminding a fresh plot to remove or enthrone an Emir.
“According to the publication Ganduje is not only alleged to be plotting to remove Emir Sanusi, they said he is also plotting to advise Alhaji Ado Bayero to abdicate his throne as Emir of Kano for peace to reign. This is, to say the least, preposterous and absurd.
“It must be made clear that Dr. Ganduje has led and Governed Kano state creditably and since moved on; focusing on other more important national issues, as he leads Nigeria’s governing party, the APC,” the statement said.
