The Kano Emirate Council has officially responded to the query issued to the Emir of Kano Mallam Muhammadu Sanusi II by the Kano State Government through the office of the SSG Alhaji Usman Alhaji. The letter was received within the stipulated time frame of 48hrs as stated in the query.
In a letter the acting secretary of the Kano Emirate Council Abba Yusuf said Sanusi could not have been culpable in the alleged fund misappropriation since he was neither the accounting officer not the council secretary.
Yusuf also said at the time Sanusi was installed as the emir in 2014, the Emirate Council had only N1, 89 billion, an amount far lesser than the N3.4 billion Kano State anti-graft agency said was siphoned between 2014 and 2017.
“You may wish to note that at the time his highness Muhammadu Sanusi was appointed Sarkin Kano, the exact amount in the account of the Kano emirate council is N1.893,378,927.38,” Yusuf said.
“It is also important to note that Emir Sanusi is not the accounting officer of the emirate council but the secretary of the council”.
