The newly appointed Emir of Kano, Sanusi Lamido Sanusi, has eventually moved into his official residence. He was escorted to his palace on Saturday from the Kano State Government House amidst water-tight security provided by some armed police officers and palace guards.

His entry into the palace after he was officially announced by the state government last Sunday came few hours after the police vacated the palace. It was speculated that the security operatives earlier prevented him from gaining access into the palace on orders from the Presidency.

Sanusi entered into the palace using a newly built gate constructed in his honour, according to what customs demand. He was accompanied by some friends and other well-wishers. The former CBN Governor led his first Muslim prayer as Emir of Kano at the palace on Saturday evening.
