There is noticeable apprehension among Kano residents as the reinstated Emir of Kano, Malam Muhammadu Sanusi II, is set to lead the two rakat congregational Friday prayers today at the Emir’s palace Friday mosque.
This announcement was made in a statement signed by Danburan of Kano on Thursday evening.
The statement invites residents to attend and listen to the sermon to be delivered by Sanusi.
Similarly, another statement from an aide of the deposed Emir, Alhaji Aminu Ado Bayero, invites residents to join him at the emir’s palace Friday mosque to observe the Jumu’at prayer.
It further mentions that the movement to the emir’s palace mosque begins at 12:30 pm.
However, the police authorities have yet to comment on the situation to prevent any potential disruption of law and order.
Effort to contact the Public Relations Officer of the Kano Police Command, SP Abdullahi Haruna failed as his mobile phone number was not going through.
