The Kano State High Court has issued a perpetual restraining order against the Emir of Kano Aminu Ado-Bayero, and four other emirs from Rano, Gaya, Bichi, and Karaye, preventing them from parading themselves as emirs.
The case, brought forth by the Attorney General of Kano State, the Speaker of the Kano State House of Assembly, and the Kano State House of Assembly, sought to restrain Aminu Ado-Bayero and the four other dethroned emirs.
The motion ex-parte was filed on May 27 by their counsel, Ibrahim Isah-Wangida Esq.
Delivering the judgment, Justice Amina Adamu-Aliyu affirmed the legislative powers of the Kano State House of Assembly.
Justice Adamu-Aliyu emphasized the authority of the state governor to assent to such bills, thereby making them law after passage by the assembly.
Meanwhile, counsel to Emir Ado-Bayero, Abdul Muhammed (SAN), informed the court of their intention to appeal the decision.
