Sanusi married Hajia Sadiya (nee Ado Bayero - pictured above) the 7th daughter and 16th child of late Emir of Kano, Alhaji Ado Bayero in the 80s. Hajia Sadiya, who rarely gives interviews, has finally opened up on how she met and married Sanusi. Below is what she told Hausa mag, Aminiya..
"I knew I was going to be betrothed but I didn't know when since I wasn't being asked when. I met my husband through my own family - he is like my brother. He grew up in the Emir palace and I thought he was my elder brother because he was always with my older brothers. I grew up seeing him in our house so I was surprised when he started to show interest in me. I later discovered we were not related and married him.
On her successful marriage and motherhood
"I thank the Almighty Allah for the great gift of children. When I married him, I didn't have a child immediately till about three years later. When we had our first son, we were filled with joy. As for marriage, staying married has to do with patience and obedience - these two have helped my marriage. Your husband should always be the head of the family no matter your status "On her most memorable day
"My joy was when my husband was turbanned because we looked forward to it but it came when we least expected it. I was so full of joy that day."FYI: Sanusi Lamido Sanusi is the grandson of Sir Muhammadu Sanusi, the 11th Emir and 54th ruler of Kano.

PDP all the way
###########GOD punish####################devil
Tov me o they are still related SMH
She said they are not related, does it really matter becaise cousins are allowed to get married in Hausa culture. More so those from royal homes marry within.
The throne never leaves the family,I think the muslims have a Very interesting n controversial culture sad these BH dudes av sent an absolute wrong perception.
You dat is hw evry parent shd do.help ur kids find spouse instead of boyfrnds here n dere.me i hv sum1 betrothed to me to.i pray our story will turn out gud as dis
You dat is hw evry parent shd do.help ur kids find spouse.we say our kids are nt mature 4 marriage but mature 2 keep boyfrnd n girlfrnd.
Staying married has to do with patience and obedience it has help her marriage, Ok nice good advise for those that are married and those that are yet to marry...copied.
How come she became fair all of a sudden. Just saying.
See the way he was looking in love and lust. Can not believe he could marry someone else. The attention of some men is so transient . So are their opinions
Nobody can murder you destiny....you are born to be leader..Jonathan can you see.
OK we done here......Amarachi

She said it all, patience and obedience. Also no matter your statues, let the man be the head.
Linda check ur facts before senging abeg,he has three wives not two.
In my tribe, they cannot marry they are related by blood since the late emir was sanusi's grandfather's brother. They are still of the same kindread
No one cares. Happy you are happy anyway
I tire o! U go fear love story! Lol
All the best oooo
Go hang urself f***er!!!u don't hv 2 read it & u r more stupid 4 commenting shit head!!!
As in ehhhh...
Is there something like grand uncle cos it means sanusi married his grand uncle's daughter i.e his 2nd cousin ....hw una no com de related? Abegiiii, shift.
R u kidding me??? Must ur dumb ass comment?Pain??*wide eyed* u must b a sick idiot...
Funny love story# upon all d love he still married ano wife awwwwwwwwwwww
Funny love story# upon all d love he still married ano woman awwwwwwwwwwww
Love story ko?
If there truly was love, will there be a 2nd wife????
Who is fooling who?
Linda, if you like no post o na for that your small nose!
Is dt how d emir's wife supose to look? I ws expectin a woman in a long hijab n a covered face. U no dos kin kule naa, somtim like dt.
You sure live in the 19th century!
so being given out to a man way older than you, with little or no love in the name of "helping her find husband"
Is better than falling in love???? Smh
i think this explains the reason why they go on to marry 2nd, 3rd and even 4th wives.....
SHE IS A BEAUTY, WITH AN EVER SMILING FACE.
Mallam Sanusi did not button his shirt. Hmm area.......
Whew! What a boring story dnt find it interesting
You Re so right
Her first daughter looks exactly like her.
4 ur info, love story in India is diff 4m dt in China, so dnt compare ur idiotic borrowed western love life to African love life
So cos dia is a second wife dia is no love? So ur parents who have more dn one wife don't av love btw dm
One good thing about Sanusi becoming Emir is that at least we know he is and everyone has seen his face. I don't think anyone saw the face of the last Emir of Kano and he was there for over 30 years! It should be interesting to see when Jonathan goes to pay him homage and solicit political support from the very man he hounded out of office.
Cynic*Igbo*Guy
Mmmm haters can all go and die! Even if he married number 2, at least she is still in the his house and recognised! Unlike some so called only wives who are not happy but staying put because of their children even though the man no longer has an iota of love for them!!!
At least hin marry bring come house and she still dey the house and she still be authority for the house. What of the one wey the man go dey gbench babes for outside, the wife no go know, neighbours go know con dey laugh her for her back.
Better if he marries more, rather than fooling around outside and giving her sleepless night.
Even if na arranged at least she don marry sha. You nko?
He married a second wife because it is better to marry another rather than be fucking random babes for outside.

Solary. Everyone is not a product of a polygamous home. Everything should not be attributed to the west. There were love stories before the white man came to Nigeria.
Allah be praise
What's wrong with polygamy? Most of u pple commenting know is irrespective of religion, a man is a polygamous being by nature, see as celebrities dey flirt around like tuface,femi kuti,Beckham and others that have make divorce the order of the day just to have varieties. I guess polygamy should be legalise just like gays right especially in the western world where significant percentages of men are now gays, now who go marry the surplus women around? POST MY COMMENT Oh!
Gbozaaaa!!! Gbagaun Republic!!! Oshey...
