The Nigerian police have been ordered to arrest the newly-crowned Emir of Kano, Sanusi Lamido Sanusi, on fraud-related charges stemming from his tenure as Governor of the Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN).
According to reliable sources at the Presidency in Abuja, the team of policemen at the Emir’s palace in Kano received the order from the Nigeria police headquarters to place Mr. Sanusi under arrest if he leaves the Kano Governor’s lodge.
The sources told SaharaReporters that Mr. Sanusi was to be arrested at his private home on Sunday night after his appointment was announced by the Kano State Governor.It would be recalled that the presidency embarked on several frantic measures to frustrate the former CBN governor’s emergence as Emir, including the premature congratulations of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) to one of the candidates before the choice was announced.
Since becoming Emir, Mr. Sanusi has been inside the Kano State governor’s lodge, receiving visitors and undertaking traditional rites.
The source also told SaharaReporters that some notable northern leaders have already warned President Jonathan to avoid such a reckless action so as to avoid setting fire to the already volatile situation in the city of Kano. It is not known if President Jonathan is favoring back channel dialogue aimed at resolving the mess. Observers point out that he has yet to offer congratulations to the new Emir despite the PDP doing so.

#BringBackOurGirls
Jona the learner has been outfoxed again as a result of his planners failure to realize the the first rule in sun tzu"s art of war(laying of plans).its best he retreats and applies rule 3 (attack by stratagem).However I find the claims raised within to be preposterous and improbable
Sanusi just bought a house in Kanu for 500 million, was his father a billionaire ? If he was did he give all the money to Sanusi? If he stole which I believe he did he should be dealt with his regalia should no be seen as immunity.
U that call someone a coward, I am sure that u won't take up arm when war breaks out oooo. Jona is jUst jealous and he should go and take several seats.
U're right anon 11:45...just his family both living and dead...Anuofia!
I don't even understand where this country is heading to...So because Sanusi LaMido Sanusi is an Emir now he cant be question again? There is no way one can do and people will not find fault. This same GEJ is whom everybody calls weakling. Now he want to act they will start warning him against it cos of a common Emir. Is he GEJ not d president of this nation? And if Yes...then we all are his subject and he has every right to call whomever strays to order...if you like be Emir of Kano or Emir of Boko Haram.. GEJ please you have my 110% support. Arrest Sanusi LaMido Sanusi if there is need for it
Lindiway... Am disappointed you still post news culled from Sahara Reporters, even when we all know that they are clothed with lies and only says the truth mistakenly on rare occasions.
False news
Sanusi is just using Emir to cover up his dirty Game, let him dance to his music. Nobody is above the law. Jona is doing the right thing.
They just keeps pushing this man call GEJ to misbehave.... when the whole thing now turn to wahala is then he would realize is alone. you will think is Amachi, even that one battle you never win. I pity ur life.
I think Goodluck is taking advice from his god father's in politics or people are pressuring him into taking such actions..Can't u people see the problem all started when sanusi exposed those thieves that were stealing our money and the president started attacking him.He had a choice he would have choosed to benefit from their stealing or expose them and make them hate him but he choosed to expose those thieves.I believe that muslem's are honest people sanusi didn't steal from us its our so called politicians that share the money allocated for the state to buy cars for their girlfriends and spend the money anyhow sprayin money everywhere they go for people to worship them and usng our money to entice people to vote for them..Open ur eyes people.Goodluck u might have succeded in removing him as the cbn govenor b4 his tenure finished to put some1 there that could always answer yes sir to u and give u any amount of money u want but this time u can't succed in removing him as the emir..mayb u guy succeded in payin people to protest and make trouble in kano but since that strategy is not working out u guys decided to go tru efcc which is also answerable to u mr president..Why now after 2 days of makin him the emir why wasn't it b4 now..Nigeria Politics..The north and south didn't protest wen u won the elections the other candidates didn't make efcc come after u after u ruled in Bayelsa why didn't they accuse u of fraud and all that..Let the sleeping dogs lie..Pls don't mind my grammatical blunder

What of Asari? Jona cabinet is corrupt,his corruption is endless.Jona is the problem of this country. Nigeria has never been this bad.
Your Father is stupid, you asswipe, is Sanusi above the law, I can't bet my ass you don't live in toronto. What stupid peace making? If the northerners want to burn themselves they should. I think you should commit suicide really. You just irrelevant to yourself, family and society at large. Whatever you wish GEJ should be sent back to your father in million folds. Ode!
SANUSI SHLD FACE THE MUSIC... HE'S A CRIMINAL
Omg! So disappointed to all the shit am seeing here. What's with all this northerners shit. I mean gej has been trying to ficks this country and this people are tearing his government. Not like am gej's fan but if he is now ready to face his enemies good for him. He needs our support. Hell with the cursed northerners
All u northerners are posting rubbish comments... Do u guys think we southerners are afraid of ur weak threats. If u guys think u are volatile then we SUBVERSIVE
U don't hv to show ur small mindedness to d public pardon ur anonymous though, hweva a king w a stain must answer for hw can clear his name frm d alegation . Grow up plz. silvo
Tyranny in the making. We may regret ever voting a 'militant' to power.
i guess it is time for GEJ to declare war on the north instead of playing pranky moves that will lead to war. what is his interest in the career of this man, if we truly operate under a democratically elected government, i think he should allow this man to enjoy his freedom.
this our president sef ,,,,lwad what is this guy doing, we have pressing issues than this
As much as they're trying to peg this blatant witch-hunting as fraud case, it's obvious this is more of a tug of war and power play between two "agbayas." It's not even about taking sides cos at the end of the day, we probably don't know the truth. Nigeria is just one fat corrupt junkyard wreathing in it's own mess.
It took 4 years get a reaction from GEJ on Boko Garam but less than a weak to clamp down on Sanusi's emir-ship? Priorities people, priorities.smh
I pray for this war everyday day to happen. Those who think they ve the power in their hands and can use it wrongly. Let's see wot pans out with it. U knw ur power, u dnt knw ur opponent's.........Abacha ws wrongly advised and deceived by all those who were looking to fill their pockets. Bt wen he died, they all ran away. Somebody be wise for once b4 its too late. Political pasecution never end well in history.
Oh please...they are all corrupt, they should start with themselves, the money jona they steal fa? He should be arrested too! Mtschew yeye people
Well nothing is NEW in Nigeria
Dey are all stealing our money, gej should first arrest him self, remove the spike from your own eyes before your remove the log from your brethen
Anon 11:30 Incase you live under the stone, he stole money, he isn't above the law, he can hide in the government house, become an emir, find every means to run away from judgement but he must defend himself because he isn't above the law
Sanusi is not fit to lead coupled with his history during the time of ABACHA. He is a jihadist and he is fraudulent. Who says that he would be arrested without evidence? My President is not lame. He is a man with few words, calculated and fit to run this country. He does not bark but bite when needed. Who Is sanusi to a local government chairman, talk more of the president of this great nation.
Good to know that Sanusi would arrested for his crimes. he is not fit to leave.
In my humble opinion, Rabiu Kwankwaso is an unworthy Governor of Kano State. He's a prankster and mischief-maker. Damn. That hopeless creature from the Kano mafia seems not to have any no sense of decency or loyalty towards his electorates. Rabiu Kwankwaso and the Kano oligarch ("mafia") stabbed HIS OWN PEOPLE (the people of Kano) in the back. TRAITOR. The people of Kano deserve better. One of the allegations against Sanusi Lamido Sanusi by the federal government is that Sanusi Lamido Sanusi is suspected to be one of the financiers of Boko Haram. The fact that Sanusi Lamido Sanusi is now appointed as Emir, without these allegations being ironed out, is further evidence that some Northerners are not ready to confront the issue of terrorism in the North. If they were, Sanusi Lamido Sanusi, a man facing terrorism-related charges by the federal government of Nigeria, would not be the preferred choice as Emir of Kano, a city that has been attacked severally by the Boko Haram, a criminal and terrorist organisation. By this act, Rabiu Kwankwaso has made himself an unworthy governor of Kano. Only an unworthy governor would turn such a revered institution as the emirate of Kano into political football. Rabiu Kwankwaso has made the people of Kano into a laughing-stock, nationally and internationally. Revered institutions such as the Emir of Kano should be beyond the shenanigans of political manipulation. There is NOTHING progressive about the APC. NOTHING. THEY ARE CARPETBAGGERS AND DESPERATE AND UNSCRUPULOUS OPPORTUNISTS. The appointment of Sanusi Lamido Sanusi as the new Emir of Kano is further proof. What the APC bring to Nigeria is the same tired old-time corrupt politics that has been the bane of the country for the longest time. APC is a big charade and a con. Don't fall for heir scam. Unfortunately for Rabiu Kwankwaso, he chose the wrong state to do this PRANK. Kano is a highly volatile city. The people of Kano are not going to take Sanusi Lamido Sanusi's appointment and Rabiu Kwankwaso's INSULT lightly. THEY WONT and SHOULDN'T. Already, there have been a number of violent skirmishes since his appointment. Rabiu Kwankwaso has lighted a bush-fire whose consequences will be more than he bargained for. Kano citizens have been brazenly disrespected by Governor Rabiu Kwankwaso and they will go in registering their protest. Governor Rabiu Kwankwaso’s act will backfire against him and APC in Northern Nigeria, especially in Kano. We have not yet heard the last of APC and Kwankwaso’s treachery. The stupidity, foolishness and recklessness of Rabiu Kwankwaso will cost APC. I'm very excited. lol
If this story is true.....It is so unfortunate this Mr. President is a Niger Delta man, we are not this dull and stupid. Jonathan had 7 days to arrest this man before he became an emir Buh he did not,no congratulatory msg or visit frm presidency. Jonathan be wise don't Ever fight ur enemies like this, learn frm past n present presidents ow to handle issues like dis.
Ghen Ghen...........

Trying to Figure Out Somethings....Sanusi is Royal-Blooded & Why Is Jonathan So Concerned About Him Sanusi,We All Know He is a Stubborn Prince & Will Speak The Truth No Matter What ,Cos He is a Very True Islamist/Jihad-ist...............Not Joining (Jona) In Corruption....This Guy Exposed NNPC not Jonathan....This Jonathan Guy Thought Sanusi Is a Son Of The Floor............He Attended King's College Back In the Days With Bukola Saraki & If He Knows Nothing About History......Enviousness Triggered 1966 CIVIL WAR brought Upon EASTERN PEOPLE (THEN BIAFRA) By Ojukwu In This Like Manner (READ CHINUA ACHEBE "THERE WAS ONCE A COUNTRY) ....Jonathan Is as Stubborn as Ojukwu But Ojukwu Is From The Noble....SLS Is the Son Of a Late Emir Sanusi (Deposed).I ask My self............Who Is He Playing With and Where is Jonathan Lineage, A Minority for that Matter..........................Jonathan Is Fighting a Battle He Would Not Win.....234girls Are Missing & Its Sanusi He is Busy Witch Hunting........Am Not Even Sure If Nigerian Labor Market Is Safe For Me...(ANGERED)
About the kidnapped Nigerian school girls, SANUSI and Hausa / Fulani leaders know where the girls are held by Northern leaders. According to WikiLeaks documents, the North (and their overseas based sponsors - western government) are asking that GEJ step down and hand over power to a northern muslim. We are fighting the wrong battle with all these BRING BACK OUR GIRLS hashtags. We the public and the people of Nigeria have been misled to what the REAL ISSUES are. Nigerians, please, THINK. Read the WikiLeaks report below:
"More than 30 Northern Nigerian Christians have been kidnapped again by The Islamic Terrorist Groups Boko Haram (Education is Forbidden). The Islamic Terrorist Groups Boko Haram had previously killed more than 600 Northern Nigerian Christians and kidnapped the more than 200 Northern Nigerian Christians 2 Months ago and forced them to recite Islamic Shahada in their Youtube Videos and threatened to sell them into Sex slaves as they quote verses from the Quran that ''they would sell those Girls by Allah''. One of the captive victim claim that those Northern Christians are being Rapes by Boko Haram Islamic Terrorist Members, the Imams and some of the kidnapped Girls are Pregnant. According to one of the escaped captive, The Northern Nigerian Christian Girls were kept inside Mosque controlled by Maiduguri Islamic Authority in Northern Nigeria. The Nigerian Military claimed that they knew where the Girls are being kept but they won't use force to rescue them because it would risk the lives of the Girls. Nigerian Military actually knew that those Girls are being kept in the Mosque but they haven't conclude negotiation with Northern Nigeria Islamic Authority because they gave Nigerian ''President Goodluck Jonathan'' condition to accept before they would free the female captives. The Condition given to Nigerian ''President Goodluck Jonathan'' is that he should tender his resignation letter so that his Muslim Vice President will take charge as President or The Boko Haram would continue their attacks on Christians and Government Properties. The Condition was given to him to leave office as a President of Nigeria because he is a Christian from South. And the Northern Nigerian Muslims consider themselves as the real Nigerians and as People who would always determine the future of Nigeria. But the fact is that Maiduguri Islamic Authority in Northern Nigeria has not permitted Nigerian Military to conduct a raid inside their Mosques as they claim that it's violation of Islam to raid their Mosques and it would lead to country unrest and Religious conflict in Nigeria. So the Kidnapped Northern Nigerian Girls are being kept inside Mosque controlled by Prominent Maiduguri Islamic Authority in Northern Nigeria.

These evidence have not been published by Nigerian Medias, News Papers or announced by Nigerian Government Publicly because the Nigerian Government fear that it could spark Religious violence in Nigeria but the secret is found in ( WikiLeaks Secret Documents)"
