The crisis rocking the Emir of Kano, Muhammad Sanusi II has taken another dimension, dividing the state House of Assembly.
The observation raised over the ongoing investigation of petitions an alleged violation of the culture, religion and tradition values of the people of Kano by Emir Sanusi II, by the Deputy Speaker of the House, Hamisu Ibrahim Chidari led to a free-for-all fight in the house.
It was a free-for-all fight on Monday when the Deputy Speaker and chairman of the Public Complaints and Petition Committee, Hamisu Ibrahim Chidari raised observation over the ongoing investigation of petitions of an alleged violation of the culture, tradition and religious values of the people of Kano by Emir Muhammad Sanusi 11.
The Deputy Speaker and chairman of the Public Complaints and Petition Committee’s observation was immediately opposed by members of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) members.
This led to a heated debate that led to physical combat following the struggle of the opposition members to take control of the mace, which in the process was spontaneously rescued by security men and the Sergeant of Arm attached to the House of Assembly.
Security has been beefed up at the Assembly to forestall any eventuality following the fisticuff which lasted for about 25 minutes before the House restored to normalcy and went for a 30 minutes break.
