Peace restored in Kano state as Billionaire Dangote reconciles Governor Ganduje, Emir Sanusi [photos]

The Kano state Governor, Abdullahi Ganduje and Emir Sanusi have reconciled following the intervention of Africa’s richest man, Aliko Dangote and others including Governor Fayemi. 

The intervention came, 24 hours to the expiration of a query issued to the emir by the state government, seeking answer on alleged misappropriation of the emirate’s finances amounting to N3.4bn. 

Crisis started between them due to the emir’s alleged support for the opposition PDP candidate, Abba Yusuf, in the last general election. 

In order to cut down the emir’s influence, the governor went ahead to creat four rival emirates and appointed emirs in each.
