President Goodluck Jonathan and the new Emir of Kano, Muhammad Sanusi II,are now indeed at peace. It will be recalled that the State Security Services on May, 3rd around 11: 10 pm had seized the Emir’s passport as he made to board a Turkish airline flight for a planned trip to Saudi Arabia for lesser hajj.
Reports however say the new development came shortly after the Emir visited Aso rock for the second time indicating all was now well between him and the president.
The Senior Special Assistant to Governor Rabiu Kwankwaso on Chieftaincy and Emirate Council Affairs, Tijjani Mailafiya, confirmed this to journalists, saying the SSS returned the Emir’s passport through the director in charge of its Kano state command, Bassey Itang.
With his passport now in his possession, the Emir was now better placed to serve his people locally and abroad, when necessary, Mailafiya said.
