Governor Siminalayi Fubara of Rivers state has congratulated His Royal Highness, Muhammad Sanusi II on his reinstatement as the 14th Emir of Kano.
This was contained in a
statement signed by his chief press secretary, Nelson Chukwudi on Thursday, May
23.
In his statement, Gov Fubara
said that he received the news of the reinstatement of the former Governor of
the Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN) with great excitement, particularly coming at
a time Khalifa Sanusi II was in the state to add impetus to his
administration’s initiative to reshape the economic trajectory of the state.
Sanusi was in the Rivers State
capital, delivering his keynote speech at the ongoing Rivers State Economic and
Investment Summit when the news broke.
The governor noted that his
reinstatement by the Kano State government at this time showed that Muhammad
Sanusi II’s dethronement on March 9, 2020, was against the wishes and
aspirations of the great people of Kano State, and therefore, an unjust act to
the millions of people who believed in his reign while on the revered throne.
He commended the Kano State
government for listening to the yearnings of the people, and acting to correct
the wrongs of the past, and urged the people to give the Sarki of the ancient
city of Kano the maximum support to succeed.
Fubara also urged the spiritual
leader of the Tijanniyah Sufi order of Nigeria, Emir Muhammad Sanusi II, to
lead the over 50 million adherents of the Sufi order in Nigeria with love,
wisdom and courage while bringing lasting peace, justice, equity and fairness
to all in the city of Kano.
