Emirship tussle: No man can question God – Sanusi says as he leads Juma’a prayer

The reinstated Emir of Kano, Alhaji Muhammadu Sanusi, Emir of Kano, while leading a sermon at the Kofar Kudu Central Mosque in Kano, said no one can ask God for an explanation on any issue.

Sanusi’s sermon, which focused on believing in Allah in good and bad times, came amid an emirship tussle in the state.

According to him, “Whoever believes that Allah alone gives everything must take the decision of Allah wholeheartedly. No one asks Allah’s reasons for anything.

“We were told that whoever did not accept destiny is from Allah; his belief is not complete. One should be thankful in times of good and bad situations. We must believe that whatever happens to us is predestined by God, and what we couldn’t have is from Him.

“We are fast approaching Zhul Hijja, which is very beneficial, and we must observe supplications these days.”

The monarch subsequently led prayers.

The Informant247 gathered that the Kano State Police Command had earlier dismissed reports that Ado Bayero will lead Jumma’t Prayers at Kofar Kudu Central Mosque, Kano, where Alhaji Muhammadu Sanusi, Emir of Kano, is at the moment.

Sanusi and Ado Bayero have been claiming the throne, creating confusion in the city.

Governor Abba Kabir Yusuf had dethroned Ado Bayero and asked him to hand over within 48 hours.
But the dethroned monarch returned to the town under military protection and has operated from the mini palace since then.

In a statement by Abdullahi Kiyawa, spokesman of Kano Police Command, said, “The Commissioner of Police, CP Mohammed Usaini Gumel, FIPMA, psc further assured that all necessary security arrangements have been made for Alhaji Aminu Bayero to observe his Jummah Prayers in the Mosque where he lives at the Nasarawa Palace.

“The CP also assured that the Police and all other state security agencies will provide adequate security at the Palace where Emir Muhammadu Sanusi II is expected to observe his Jumma’at Prayers.

“Members of the public are therefore advised to ignore the false reports and misinformation circulating on social media and to go about their activities without fear of molestation or intimidation, assuring that the Police will continue to provide the necessary security for ensuring that residents observe their Friday congressional prayers peacefully and without threats to their lives and property.”
