Linda, I tot pdp paid u to announce the other guy. Thank God you have posted the right information. Well congrats to HRH Sanusi Lamido. Hope he wld work with the govt to stop these boko boys. But this don make am difficult for President Jonathan in a way ooo. APC modafuckers wld be happy. Well for now I don't think Sanusi is a member of any political party. My advice; Just serve ur pple well sir.

If his becoming a traditional ruler is to be a puppet for the opposition to use in destabilising the government of the day,i pity him.because we are getting tired of traditional institutions that are not up to date with modern ways of governance.emir of kano,beware.what you do now will contribute to the unity or division of this country.

All those saying that president Goodluck Jonathan must now bow down to Sanusi Lamido Sanusi because he has been appointed the new Emir of Kano are forgetting one basic fact that we are in a democratic state and that the traditional rulers are at the mercy of the democratically elected governors of their various states. Sanusi Lamido Sanusi can only become Emir by the authorization of governor KwanKwaso. A democratically elected governor of a state can elect and unseat any religious leader within his jurisdiction. The president is in a much more superior position than the Emir. Nigerians should stop dragging the presidency to ridicule even when it is totally uncalled for. The president will only visit Sanusi Lamido Sanusi if and only when he chooses. And if he chooses only to shake hands with the Emir, then that will be the case. Yes president Goodluck Jonathan might have failed in some quarters doesn't mean we should always seize every opportunity to reduce him to unnecessary ridicule - Etcetera.

Compensation things.... what is he being compensated for if i may ask?? something similar happened when akinolu became the Oba of Lagos, some of us know he is not entitle to it but politic... To those bashing Tiwa savage, our culture has been diluted a long time ago... Na example una dey see so o!

Anonymous said...

that's beautiful!
Shame on Badluck Jonathan!
They have shown him that Sanusi is a more reputable and honourable man than he can ever be.

1. Congrats to SLS
2. I am looking forward a congratulatory message from the President of the Federal Republic of Nigeria.
3. If the president of Nigeria decide to go for a second term, would he visit the Emir's palace to solicit support. i.e like he did over the weekend.

Angie cape please don't comment over something you don't know! There are two ruling houses in kano, the Bayero's and the Sanusi's. SLS grandfather was dethroned and Ado Bayero was made emir, so the Bayero house has been ruling for the past 50years, is it not only logical that the Sanusi house should step in now? Besides there is no where, where it is written that Ado's son should or must rule after his father. The king makers choose three names from the ruling houses and submits to the state govt, and the state govt chooses whom it deem fits. So all this your grammar is baseless.

Won't this man incite the north?. I thought the executive arm of government had powers over the monarchy?am sure GEJ can upturn this decision.he has the powers to. and it is conferred on him by law. Let's watch as events unfold.

Eva, GEJ has no power to upturn anything, why did you forget so soon, Abacha planned to roast Obasanjo, but God upturned it and made him president. GEJ planned to roast Sanusi and in GEJ's very own eyes God upturned it and made Sanusi an Emir, a king that he has to bow for. What GEJ can do to avoid this is to succumb to death if he cannot face the shame. Psalm 23:5 worked for Sanusi. God prepared a table before me in the presence of my enemies. He anoints my head with oil, my cup runs over. Let it be your prayer and it will work for you.

Bowing down to sanusi does not make him greater than the president.If the president bows, he is respecting the traditional title and not the sanusi as a person.After all it was governor that appointed him and he still bows to him.
