- Governor victimizing me for refusing to rig 2019 election
The Emir of Kano, His Highness, Muhammed Sanusi II, has fired back at the Governor of Kano State, Dr. Abdulahi Umar Ganduje, over the splitting of the Kano emirate into smaller particles to whittle his power and control. The Emir revealed that the Kano governor approached him to assist in manipulating the 2019 elections in the state which he declined. He noted that he never insulted the north with his lamentation of rising poverty in north.
Emir Sanusi had declared: “The whole drama is about 2019 elections. Ganduje has begged me with money to help him subvert the will of the people by rigging the election but I declined.
“I never insulted Northern people. I said the poverty levels in the north are among the highest in the world. How does that become insulting people?”

Emir Sanusi further narrated: “I also said it is fine to build light rails but, please, let private sector do it. And don’t borrow N800 billion to build N10km of urban rail. I did not abuse anyone or call any name or insult anyone.
“I said the FG is spending 66% of its revenue on interest payment, quoting the IMF article IV., and when you are in a debt hole this big, you don’t dig. States have just been bailed out of debt by CBN. They should not be pilling more debt for future generations. Their resources should be for education and health. Where in this did I insult either politicians or the people?
“I have reflected over and over on my speech and I still don’t see what I said that is so wrong and offensive. I didn’t say the North cannot survive as a country. After all, Niger Republic is there with some help from Paris. I didn’t say that the North in the past had no glory. I know it has a rich history. I didn’t say the North can not be rich and better. In fact, I think it can and it is a disgrace we are where we are.”

Why do you bother to explain to an idiot like Ganduje? We’re Nigerian and we know your persecution is connected to your refusal to follow his pernicious way during this recently election. You are a first class HRM we all know, though am not an hausa man. But we know your worth. Let him go to hell but he will not return the 2nd Terms self. Nemesis will soon caught up with him. Thanks

Emir sunusi, education makes the difference. it is not the size of the dog in the fight that matter but the size of the fight in the dog. Please you are good to dominate the entire 44 LGAs in Kano State.

I ain’t comfortable how things turned out but we believe Allah has time for everything. He runs his destiny as and when he wishes. I call on HRH to depend on Allah for the best in life. May you live long your RH.

HRH & Ma Mentor – is a man of courage and never afraid to stop or attack all diz selfish pple in Govt. or in d political seen. He is d reason y banks are flexing now cos of d sanity he brought to the banking sector 2ru his reforms on bankz MDs. Thus, with his vast knowledge and charisma e.g in his talk on the spirit of vested interest and defence talk on Islamic banking… I bliv moving this country forward he’s d only one dt have d balls to stand & defend d masses…
