The palace of the reinstated Emir of Kano, Muhammadu Sanusi II, came under attack on Sunday, as suspected hoodlums linked to the deposed Emir Aminu Ado Bayero stormed Gidan Rumfa.
According to a statement released by the Kano Emirate media, the attackers reportedly forced their way through the palace gate, injuring some security personnel and damaging police vehicles stationed within the premises.
The incident happened shortly after Aminu Ado Bayero returned from a condolence visit and deliberately passed through Emir Palace Road instead of using the route from Koki to Nassarawa.
