Reporters are reporting that, the newly crowned Emir of Kano, Sanusi Lamido
Sanusi, is to be arrested by the Nigerian Police on fraud-related charges from
his tenure as Central Bank Of Nigeria (CBN) Governor.
Sources
at the Presidency in Abuja have disclosed that a team of policemen at the Emir’s
palace in Kano received their order from the Nigerian Police Headquarters to
place Sanusi under arrest if he leaves the Kano Governor’s lodge.
It
is said that, Sanusi was meant to have been arrested at his private home on
Sunday night after his appointment was announced, according to sources at the
news agency.
The
outsted Apex Bank Governor has been staying at the Kano State Governor’s lodge,
receiving visitors and undertaking traditional rites.
It
is also being alleged that a few northern leaders have warned President
Jonathan to avoid “a reckless action so as to avoid setting fire to the already
volatile situation in the city of Kano”
So
that explains why he has been receiving guest and performing his duties at the
Governors lodge. I have been wondering why. If he feels he has nothing to fear
or hide, then let him go to his official residence and face the music for his
actions. If he is innocent, it would be proven so. After all he has the money
to hire the best lawyers in the country.
