Appeal Court’s ruling: ‘Bayero still Emir of Kano’
A member of the 15th Kano Emirate Council,Alhaji Aminu Babba Dan’agundi, has said that Alhaji Aminu Ado Bayero is still the Emir of Kano, going by Friday’s ruling of the Court of Appeal.
Dan’agundi made the assertion while addressing newsmen at the Nasarawa palace of Alhaji Aminu Ado Bayero on Saturday.
“The Court of Appeal sitting in Abuja had on Friday ruled that the Status Ante Bellum should be maintained in the case between we and them, which means that Alhaji Aminu Ado Bayero remains the Emir of Kano pending the determination of the suit by the Supreme Court of Nigeria.
“I am therefore asking Alhaji Sanusi Lamido Sanusi to stop parading himself as the Emir of Kano,as his actions contravene the ruling of the Court of Appeal,” he said.
Dan’agundi, who is the Sarkin Dawaki Babba in Bayero’s Emirate Council, therefore urged security agencies in the state to enforce the Court of Appeal ruling.
The Court of Appeal had ruled that:”An Injunction is hereby granted restraining the Respondents herein named either themselves, their agents, privies, servants, or personal representatives from enforcing the judgment of this Court in Appeal No. CA/KN/126/2024 KANO STATE HOUSE OF ASSEMBLY AND ANOR VS ALHAJI AMINU BABBA DAN AGUNDI & OTHERS delivered on the 10/1/2025 pending the hearing and determination of the applicant’s appeal filed on 24/1/2025 before the Supreme Court of Nigeria.
“That Mandatory Injunction is ordered that parties shall maintain the status quo ante bellum as well as the Sheriff of this Court and the trial Court as was the position before the trial Court in its judgment delivered on 13/6/2024 in Sult No. FHC/KN/CS/182/2024 Between ALHAJI AMINU BABBA DAN AGUNDI V KANO STATE HOUSE OF ASSEMBLY & 7 OTHERS pending the hearing and determination of the applicant’s appeal against the Judgment of this Court in Appeal No. CA/KN/126/2024 KANO STATE HOUSE OF ASSEMBLY AND ANOR VS ALHAJI AMINU BABBA DAN AGUNDI & OTHERS delivered on the 10/1/2025.
“The Applicant shall within 48 hours file in Court an undertaking to indemnify the Respondents in damages in event that the Order ought not to have been made.”
