The former presidential candidate of the Young Progressives Party, YPP, Kingsley Moghalu has expressed disappointment over the dethronement of Emir Sanusi of Kano state.
The Kano Executive Council with due approval from the Governor, Abdullahi Ganduje, expressed that the Emir was dethroned for refusing to attend official meetings and programmes without justification and ‘insubordination’ in their own words.
One of the sons of late Emir of Kano, Ado Bayero, Aminu Ado Bayero was immediately named as the 15th Fulani Emir of the state.
Reacting, Moghalu described the dethronement of Sanusi as a disappointment.
On his Twitter page, the former presidential candidate wrote: “I am shocked, sad and disappointed by the news of the dethronement of Emir Sanusi of Kano.
“There is in Nigeria a real battle between ideas and modernity, on one hand, and primitivity and retrogression on the other.”
