Africa-Press – Nigeria. <\/strong><\/span>The Emir of Kano, Muhammadu Sanusi II, has strongly denied violating the ban on Sallah durbar and other traditional activities, insisting that his actions on Sallah constituted a normal journey from the Eid ground back to his palace.<\/p>\n

Unidentified troublemakers reportedly caused chaos as Emir Sanusi returned to his palace after the Eid prayers on Sunday, resulting in the death of one person.<\/p>\n

Responding to the disturbances, he stated: \u201cI had returned from the Eid ground to my palace. It was after a safe arrival that I was informed that some hoodlums had attacked vigilante groups.<\/p>\n

\u201cI was told that the vigilante groups arrested some of them and took them to Police Headquarters, but on their return, they were also attacked, and one person was reportedly killed. This indicates that someone is determined to create problems in Kano where none exist.\u201d<\/p>\n

An aide of the Emir who wished to remain anonymous stated: \u201cEven before the Emir left, a boy reportedly threw a canister along the route he was to take, and he fled, leaving behind his phone and other valuables, which are now with security personnel.<\/p>\n

\u201cAll these are serious attempts to cause pandemonium and crisis in Kano by certain individuals. The Emir\u2019s movements from home to the Eid ground and back have nothing to do with the banned Sallah traditional festivities, and the police should make extra efforts to apprehend those behind the attack.\u201d<\/p>\n
