Sanusi’s dethronement: Kano Assembly suspends five members

Kano State House of Assembly on Monday suspended five lawmakers for allegedly flouting the rules of the assembly.

The speaker Abdulazeez Gafasa, who announced their suspension during a plenary session, accused the lawmakers of leading the assembly to a needless rowdy session last Monday.

The lawmakers affected include three members of the All Progressives Congress (APC) and two of the People’s Democratic Party (PDP).

The assembly on Monday, March 9 was in disarray over an attempt to remove the deposed Emir of Kano Muhammad Sanusi II.
