By Sylvanus Okpe

One of the wives of the deposed Emir of Kano, Muhammad Sanusi II, visited him in Awe at about 11:45am with three of the deposed Emir’s children.

She arrived in a white Infiniti SUV with tinted glasses. She was escorted by mobile policemen and officers of the Department of State Security who were conveyed in two Toyota Hilux vans with Kaduna State Government number plates.

The security operatives on duty opened the gate and allowed them access into the compound.

It was reported that the Emir of Awe, Alhaji Umar Isa Abubakar; Chief of Azara, Dr Kabir Musa Ibrahim and Chairman of Aee, Alhaji Umar Da-Akano were in a meeting with the deposed Emir when his family arrived.

It was also gathered that the building is being guarded by no fewer that 30 heavily armed security personnel. Sanusi was banished to Awe after being dethroned by the Kano State Government on Monday.
