Kano State Governor, Abba Yusuf, has threatened to report Justice Mohammed Liman of a Federal High Court for allegedly giving an order stopping the reinstatement of Sanusi Lamido as the 16th Emir of Kano from the United States.
He made the threat on Friday, saying that he would report the judge to the Nigeria Governors’ Forum.
ln an application filed by the Sarkin Dawaki Babba of the Kano Emirate, Aminu Babba Dan Agundi, Justice Liman had granted the order to stop the Kano State Government from enforcing the Kano State Emirate Council Repeal Law which dethroned all five Emirs in the state.
While reacting to the court order after issuing the reinstatement letter to Lamido at Africa House, Kano State Government House, Governor Abba Yusuf said, “The person that issued the court order was in America but he is ordering us to stop what we are doing. This issue of abuse I must present before the Governor’s Forum so that we can tackle it accordingly.”
The governor added that his government is an agent of due process, which is why it took action openly before everybody.
