The Emir of Kano, Muhammad Sanusi II, has promised the residents of Bichi Local Government Area in Kano State that the Emirate Council will ensure that their district head, Munir Sanusi Bayero peacefully arrives in Bichi to assume his duties.
The Emir gave the assurance on Wednesday during a solidarity visit by traditional and religious leaders from Bichi, led by the Chairman of Bichi Local Government, Alhaji Hamza Sule, at the Gidan Rumfa palace in Kano.
He disclosed that a new date would be scheduled for the transfer of the District Head, who was recently turbaned at the palace after an earlier attempt was disrupted.
“I assure you that another day will be fixed and your District Head will surely be brought to you and everything will take place peacefully,” he said.
The pledge is coming after an incident last week when security personnel allegedly barricaded the palace to prevent the District Head’s planned departure for Bichi.
According to palace sources, the heavy security presence disrupted the scheduled ceremony, leaving the reasons for the intervention unclear.
“What happened was only a distraction, we still don’t know why it happened and those involved have not disclosed the reason why they did it. However, this will not stop anything.
“I assure you that another day will be fixed and your District Head will surely be brought to you and everything will take place peacefully.
“Go back and inform the public to continue to remain peaceful and prayerful. Whatever the situation, peace and prayers will surely take us to the end of the tunnel,” the Emir said.
