“There Is Only One Emir in Kano” – Massive Crowd Applauds Sanusi During Eid Durbar

By Salisu Hamisu Ali

Thousands of Kano State residents thronged the streets, cheering the Emir of Kano, Malam Muhammad Sanusi II, as he led the traditional Eid procession, chanting, “There is only one Emir in Kano.”

This comes after the police had banned the Eid procession, citing security concerns.

However, despite the police warning, the Emir proceeded with the customary post-Eid prayer Durbar.

The Emir set out from the Eid prayer ground at Kofar Mata, passing through Kofar Wambai, Zage, and Shahuchi before arriving at Shettima’s residence, where he was received by Kano State Governor Abba Kabir Yusuf and other government officials.

Reports indicate that the massive crowd that gathered to welcome the Emir expressed great joy as they watched him and his entourage pass by.
