How I want to leave, Sanusi revealed
The former governor of the Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN) posited that he was more concerned with reinstating the over 1000 years of Kano Emirate's heritage than with the title of the Emir itself.
The embattled emir said:
“For me, even now that I am here, only God knows how long I will be here. I can die tomorrow. Another governor can come tomorrow and say that he has removed me. It doesn’t matter.”The Emir maintained that he would not have any problem should another government make a move against him.
My problem with past government, Sanusi speaks
He stressed that the problem he had with the past administration in the state was tampering with the Emirate system.
He said he was happy that it wouldn't be recorded that 1000 years of history were destroyed during his time.
Sanusi then expressed gratitude to Governor Yusuf and the Kano State House of Assembly for correcting the errors and restoring the emirate to what it was. He expressed optimism that when he died or left, anyone coming after him would inherit what he initially inherited.
