The Kano state government has denied claims by a civil society organisation that it plans to dethrone the Emir of Kano, Muhammad Sanusi II.
The state government described the allegation by a Kano group, Renaissance Coalition, on a fresh plot to dethrone the emir as false.
The group had in a statement claimed that the governor of Kano state, Abdullahi Ganduje, had concluded fresh plans to transfer Sanusi to Bichi emirate.
The group spokesperson, Ibrahim A. Waiya, alleged that it was gathered that should Emir Sanusi resists, he would be deposed of his position as the Emir of Kano.
