Emir Muhammadu Sanusi II, who was reinstated as the 16th Emir of Kano by Governor Abba Kabir Yusuf after being dethroned by former Governor Abdullahi Ganduje in 2020, has expressed his perspective on the possibility of another governor removing him from his position.
In a recent interview with Saturday Sun, Emir Sanusi stated that only God knows how long he will remain on the throne.
He emphasized that while another governor could potentially remove him, what matters most to him is the preservation of the Kano Emirate's history and system.
Emir Sanusi expressed gratitude to the current government and assembly for restoring the emirate to its original state.
He acknowledged that he is content with the knowledge that he will not leave a legacy of having destroyed the 1000-year history of the Kano Emirate during his tenure.
Reflecting on the lessons he learned during his four-year absence from the throne, Emir Sanusi emphasized that life is a continuous process of learning and relearning.
He mentioned that he had not been idle during this period and had recently completed writing a PhD thesis at the University of London, with plans to return next month to finalize some details before his graduation in September.
The reinstatement of Emir Sanusi has brought stability to the Kano Emirate, and his reflections on his reign and the lessons learned during his time away from the throne provide valuable insights into his perspective on leadership and the importance of preserving cultural and historical legacies.
