Tension is brewing in Kano State over the announcement by the reinstated Emir Muhammadu Sanusi II and the dethroned Emir Aminu Ado Bayero, that they both plan to pray Jumaat prayers at the Palace Central Mosque.
The situation has caused palpable fear among residents of the area.
A statement issued late Thursday and signed by Danburan Kano, Munir Sanusi Bayero, according to DailyPost, said Emir Muhammadu Sanusi II has been leading the Jumaat Prayers at the Palace Central Mosque as the Amir of the City.
The statement noted that Sanusi, who resides in the Palace and is closer to the contending Mosque, is expected to lead the two rakat Friday prayers.
The statement spelt out the movement of the reinstated Emir Muhammadu Sanusi II to the Mosque to lead the Jumaat Prayers.
The statement by Danburan invited Kano residents to come and listen to the sermon to be delivered by Emir Malam Muhammadu Sanusi II.
However, another statement from an aide of the deposed Emir, Alhaji Aminu Ado Bayero invited residents to join him at the Emir’s Palace Friday Mosque to observe the Juma’at prayer.
It stated that the movement to the Emir’s Palace Mosque starts at 12.30 pm.
However, the police are yet to comment on the development.
