Governor Abba Yusuf of Kano State has knocked Justice Mohammed Liman of the Federal High Court in the state, for allegedly issuing an ex-parte order from far away the United States of America (USA).

The governor also vowed to report Justice Liman to the appropriate authorities for giving an order to stop the reinstatement of Sanusi Lamido as the 16th Emir of Kano.

The governor pointed out that the court injunction was gotten around 2 am at midnight from a Judge who is far away in America.

He, however, clarified that the process that saw the reinstatement of Sanusi followed due process and was in line with the Constitution.

He said: “It means they were already armed with the motion ex-parte even before I gave assent to the bill passed by the State House of Assembly or at what time had they approached the court to obtain the order?” he asked.

“The judge is in America, how can he sit in America and give order in Nigeria to stop a legitimate process?

“The Assembly members did their legislative duty and passed the bill into law. We met with law enforcement agencies and the kingmakers before I signed the law,” he said and added the law has come to stay and no one can stop it.

“All traditional office holders and title holders elevated or appointed to an office created under the repealed Principal law, dated 5th December 2019 shall revert to their position where such positions previously existed under recognised custom and traditions before the enactment of the repealed Principal Law dated 5th December 2019.

“It is not a new stool, neither Sanusi is a new emir. The king has only returned home to his throne after it was balkanised. It has all along been his throne.”

The New Diplomat reports that Justice Mohammed Liman gave an ex-parte order stopping the Kano State Government from enforcing the newly signed, Kano State Emirate Council Repeal Law.

The presiding judge granted the ex-parte order in an application filed by Alhaji Aminu Babba Dan Agundi, the Sarkin Dawaki Babba of the Kano Emirate.

Kano State Government, Kano Assembly, the Speaker, the Attorney-General, the Commissioner of Police, the Inspector-General of Police (IGP), Nigeria Security and Civil Defence Corps (NSCDC) and the State Security Service (SSS) are respondents.
