Kano Residents Protest Over Selecting Former CBN Governor, Lamido Sanusi As New Emir

The protest started at the Kofar Kudu area, near the Emir’s palace when residents of the neighbouring streets trooped out to the palace area in opposition to the choice.

Tyres were set on fire and few roads blocked as they shouted, "Ba muso, ba muso’’, meaning, "we don’t want, we don’t want" in apparent reference to the choice of Sanusi by the state government.


Security forces have however been mobilised to disperse the crowd. Source: Ladunliadi's blog
