The allegations were based on the the house discussing the issue and approving the amendment that will later allow for the removal of the emirs and return of Khalifa Muhammadu Sanusi II as Emir of Kano, with the assent of Governor Abba Kabir Yusuf.
Lawan Hussaini, addressing journalists after plenary of the House, said there was never a move for him to read such an amendment as the issue was never discussed.
‘’It’s funny as I read the fake news also and was asked by many people if I were aware of such a plan,‘’ the Majority Leader said.
He however said after the House approved the request of the Governor for the appointment of 20 Special Advisers, it adjourned sitting to Monday, June 19, 2023.
The lawmaker noted that those spreading such rumours were people that do not want peace in the State.
