In a recent ruling, Justice Liman Mohammed of the Federal High Court in Kano State declared that dethroned Emir, Aminu Ado Bayero, has the right to be heard in court.
This decision comes shortly after a Kano State High Court ordered substituted service on Bayero and four other emirs, in a case filed by the Kano State Government to prevent them from parading themselves as emirs.
The ruling signifies a significant development in the ongoing legal battle surrounding the traditional leadership in Kano. The case brought by the state government seeks to restrain Bayero and the other emirs from claiming their titles and performing any related duties.
