The exile location of the deposed Emir of Kano, Muhammadu Sanusi has been changed from the initially announced Loko to another town in Nasarawa state. His new abode is Awe, capital of Awe local government.

Loko, a town on the bank of River Benue, was ruled out as it is said to be far from the capital. It is part of Nasarawa LGA.

Sanusi was flown in a helicopter to his new abode today from Lafia, capital of the state, less than 24 hours after he was ejected from Kano palace and began his exile journey via Abuja.

According to reports, the deposed Emir was yet to arrive at Loko, before the Nasarawa State Government decided to change his exiled place from Loko to Awe.

“Notable Nigerians like the Emir of Lafia, Justice Sidi Bage (rtd) personally met Governor Abdullahi Sule and requested for a change of location.

“Others who called the governor were Alhaji Aliko Dangote and General Aliyu Gusau amongst others,” Daily Trust reported.

“Actually, the deposed emir was scheduled to be exiled from Kano to Opanda town in Toto Local Government but there was a change of decision at the last minute.”
