The reinstated Emir of Kano, Sanusi Lamido Sanusi II, has urged the Muslim faithful in the state to live their lives according to the decision and dictates of God.

Lamido while speaking during the Friday prayers at the Kofar Kudu Central Mosque in Kano, said God predestined his reinstatement.

Sanusi II emphasised that everything that happens is according to God’s will and cannot be questioned by anyone.

He urged people to remain steadfast in their faith and focus on the deeds of Allah during both good and bad times.

Sanusi said: “Whoever believes that Allah alone gives everything must decide Allah wholeheartedly. No one asks Allah’s reasons for anything.

“We were told that whoever did not accept destiny is from Allah, his belief is not complete. One should be thankful in times of good and bad situations. We must believe that whatever happens to us is predestined from God and what we couldn’t have is from Him.

“We are fast approaching Zhul Hijja which is very beneficial and we must observe supplications these days.”

The New Diplomat reports that Sanusi II was reinstated as the Emir of Kano by Governor, Abba Yusuf.

Sanusi was the 14th Emir but was deposed in 2020 when he had a fallout with the immediate past Kano state governor, Abdullahi Ganduje.
