The royal confusion in Kano has taken another twist with the deposed Emir Aminu Ado Bayero moving into Nasarawa palace, a mini palace inside the ancient city.
The reinstated Emir Muhammadu Sanusi, has already moved into Gidan Rumfa, the main place in the city.
A video of Mr Bayero arriving at the Nasarawa palace was seen amidst fanfare and accompanied by mammoth crowd.
The immediate past Emir of Kano Aminu Ado Bayero has returned to the ancient city in the early hours of Saturday.
The monarch was dethroned on Thursday by Governor Abba Kabir Yusuf after assenting to the repealed Kano Emirates Council bill.
Mr Bayero was outside the state on official engagement when his sacked was announced and he was replaced by former Emir Muhammadu Sanusi.
However, in the early hours of Saturday, Mr Bayero returned to Kano to a crowd of supporters.
The aircraft which conveyed the monarch touched down at the Aminu Kano International airport at 4:30 am.
He was immediately thronged by his supporters, who were chanting verses from Surah Al-Fatihah in the Holy Qur’an.
You (alone) we worship, and you (alone) we ask for help (for each and everything).”
While some others were saying, “God the Almighty will punish your enemies.”
The former emir, who was fully dressed in royal regalia, did not respond to the crowd as he took his steps consciously.
He later observed Subhi (dawn prayer) at the airport.
