DSS Visits Emir of Kano’s Palace Amid Deposition Rumors

Tension escalated at the Emir of Kano’s palace as Department of State Services (DSS) operatives made an unexpected visit around 11 am on Thursday, May 23.

Amid swirling rumors and speculation about the potential deposition of the Emir, the presence of DSS agents intensified concerns among observers.

The visit coincided with the Kano State Assembly’s passing of the Kano State Emirates Council Amendment Law, which nullifies previous legislation establishing certain positions. This development has sparked speculation about the Emir’s potential removal from the throne.

While the Emir was reportedly away for a private visit in Ogun State, security personnel were stationed at the palace’s entrance, anticipating potential developments.

If Governor Abba Kabiru Yusuf approves the newly passed bill, it could lead to significant changes in the emirate’s structure, potentially impacting the Emir’s position.

The situation remains tense as observers await further developments in this unfolding saga.
