I didn’t sack my palace chief over Ganduje – Sanusi

The Emir of Kano, Muhammadu Sanusi II, has denied claims that he sacked one of his prominent palace chiefs, Alhaji Auwalu, for welcoming Governor Abdullahi Ganduje of Kano State.
Sanusi’s Chief of Staff, Alhaji Munir Sanusi Bayeron, denied the media report on behalf of his principal.
Bayeron said it was fabricated by persons with sinister motives to create rancour between the emir and the governor.
He said: “Right now we are in Lagos and we have been here since yesterday and neither myself nor anyone else can confirm to you that such a thing as sacking Emir’s Staff had happened.
“I think the media should be cautious of what they report and its effects on the peaceful coexistence of the society in general.”
