Sanusi: May fire consume those causing trouble in Kano


The Emir of Kano, Muhammadu Sanusi,, has appealed to residents to uphold peace, respect the law, and work together to ensure stability and harmony in the state.
Speaking at a special Iftar (breaking of fast) at his palace, the emir denounced those opposing his reinstatement, declaring that “fire would consume those inciting unrest in the city.”
Sanusi added that those disputing his emirship are defying God’s will, adding that they would “ultimately face unfortunate consequences for opposing what has been divinely ordained”.
“We urge everyone to maintain peace. This issue is beyond us; it is about God’s will, and He needs no one’s assistance,” the Emir said in Hausa.
“Let us be patient and continue praying, for God will always support those on the right path.
“May fire consume anyone seeking to cause trouble in Kano. May Allah protect us and our community from all evil. Let us remain peaceful and steadfast in prayer.
“Whoever challenges God’s judgment will never succeed.”
Sanusi’s remarks come on the heels of a directive from Abba Yusuf, the governor of Kano, that emirate councils should commence sallah durbar preparations.
