A Federal High Court sitting in Kano has nullified Muhammadu Sanusi II's reappointment as the 16th Emir of Kano. The presiding Judge, Justice Abdullahi Liman, declared all actions carried out following the passage of the Kano Emirate Council Repeal Law 2024 null and void.
Justice Liman had, however, ordered that parties should maintain status ante.
The Court also granted the respondents' application for a stay of proceedings pending the hearing and determination of the case at the Court of Appeal and transferred the case to Federal High Court 3.
