Sanusi put under house arrest, no access to visitors – Gov. Ganduje’s media aide

A media aide to Kano state Governor, Abdullahi Ganduje, has confirmed that Sanusi Lamido Sanusi, has gone into exile after he was dethroned as Emir of Kano.





Salihu Tanko Yakasai took to Twitter to list some of the conditions attached to the deposed monarch’s exile.

“Clearly, some people are ignorant of how dethronement works.

“When an Emir is dethroned, he is sent to exile in a remote location and will basically be under house arrest and won’t have access to visitors.

“A person under this circumstances will be after his freedom and not the next election,” he tweeted.

His tweet earned him criticisms from Nigerians on Twitter.
