New Twist As Emir Sanusi Sets To Crown First Son With Prestigious Title Held By Deposed Emir Nasiru Bayero
Emir Sanusi’s first son is a serving police officer with the rank of DSP.
Barring any last-minute changes, the Emir will honour the crown prince and nine others with different traditional titles on Friday, November 25, 2024.

The last holder of the title was Alhaji Nasiru Ado Bayero, a former Emir of Bichi ousted a few months ago after spending four years on the throne
However, It’d be recalled that Sanusi’s late father, Ambassador Aminu Sanusi, held the title until his death sometime in the 1990s.
The emir’s first son, a serving police officer with the rank of DSP, will now inherit the prestigious title.
Other individuals to be honoured include the new Mai Unguwar Mundubawa, Mahmud Aminu Yusufu; Dr. Abubakar Sanusi Usman Shehu II as Dan Galadiman Kano, and Alhaji Abubakar Aminu Sanusi (Wambai) is to serve as Dan Madami.
Arch. Ali Muktar, Sa’in Kano; Sarki Yusuf Bayero ‘Yan Daka; Abdullahi Idris Bayero, Fagacin Kano; Ado Abdullahi Aminu, Kaigaman Kano; Idris Sanusi, Sarkin Sullubawa; Mansur Isa Bayero, Sarkin Kudu; and Abdullahi Sarki Mohammed, Sarkin Yamma complete the line up of honoraries.
Thecapital.ng reports that Emir Sanusi was reinstated by Kano Governor Abba Kabir Yusuf, on May 23, 2024, four years after his ouster by former Governor Abdullahi Umar Ganduje.
