The Kano State High Court has adjourned the sitting in a case filed by the Kano State Government, to restrain the 15th Emir Ado Bayero and four other emirs, from parading themselves as emirs.
The motion on notice was filed by the plaintiffs on interlocutory injunction, after the interim order was granted by the court and the first defendant, in the suit served the plaintiff with a counter affidavit which they were to respond to.
The presiding judge, Justice Amina Adamu listened to both counsels, and adjourned the hearing of the suit till 2nd July, 2024.
The development comes after the Kano State Police Command said it had deployed more armed personnel to the two palaces housing the contending emirs in the metropolitan local government areas of Kano.
It was gathered that the hunters guarding the two palaces withdrew with the arrival of more policemen at both palaces.
The outgoing Commissioner of Police in the state, Usaini Gumel, confirmed the deployment during an interview with newsmen.
