How Gov Ganduje May Be Affected With The Void of Emir Sanusi's Banishment From Kano

The political situation in the camp of the incumbent Governor of Kano State, Abdullahi Umar Ganduje, may be considered awful as his political camp suffered what could be taken as a shocking political setback with the nullification of the banishment placed on the dethroned Emir of Kano, Sanusi Lamido Sanusi by a court. The nullification of the banishment placed on the dethroned Emir Sanusi Lamido Sanusi could be described as the heaviest political defeat that the Gandujiyya political camp may have suffered, in he recent time.

It could be recalled that a Court has recently voided the banishment placed on the dethroned Emir of Kano, Sanusi Lamido Sanusi, by the administration of Governor Abdullahi Umar Ganduje. The banishment had restricted the dethroned Emir of Kano, Sanusi Lamido Sanusi, from entering Kano. Remarkably, about two years ago, the administration of Governor Abdullahi Umar Ganduje commenced activities to dethrone Emir Sanusi Lamido Sanusi who was later banished from entering Kano, after he was successfully dethroned. The dethroned Emir Sanusi chose to challenge his banishment, the case which he won with the court ordering the Kano State Government to tender an apology and pay him N10 million as compensation. How Does This Seem As Setback For Gov Ganduje?

Sanusi Lamido Sanusi Actually, the primary motive that led to the dethronement and banishment of Emir Sanusi Lamido Sanusi from Kano could not be, totally, separated from the political rift between the dethroned Emir Sanusi Lamido Sanusi and Governor Abdullahi Umar Ganduje, ahead of the 2019 Governorship election in Kano State. It could be recall that Governor Ganduje was, then, seeking for his second term election in Office as the Executive Governor of Kano State. Considerably, the dethronement and banishment of Emir Sanusi Lamido Sanusi from Kano could, hardly, be unconnected to an attempt to reduce the growing political influence of the dethroned Emir Sanusi, in as much as Kano State politics is concerned. With the banishment, the political influence of the dethroned Emir could be considered checkmated because he would not have enough communication with his supporters and he may, possibly, lose out the political influence with time, if he had failed in his litigation which challenged his banishment by the Kano State Government.

Abdullahi Umar Ganduje Considerably, the nullification of the banishment placed on Emir Sanusi by the court could be seen as a great political setback for Governor Abdullahi Umar Ganduje, reasonably, because the dethroned Emir Sanusi may return to Kano to reawaken those who shared the same political ideologies with him and this may, immensely, affect the political camp of Governor Abdullahi Umar Ganduje who will be completing his second term in office in 2023.
