Governor Nasir El Rufai of Kaduna State has visited the deposed Emir of Kano, Muhammad Sanusi II, in Awe town, Nasarawa State, a government statement said on Friday.
According to the statement issued by El-Rufai’s media aide, Mr Muyiwa Adekeye, the governor drove from Abuja to Awe and met the deposed Emir in high spirit.
It said that El-Rufai arrived Awe shortly before a Federal High Court sitting in Abuja granted an interim order, releasing Sanusi from detention.
The statement said that Sanusi and El-Rufai attended Friday prayers together in Awe, where the deposed Emir led the Jumma’at prayer.
The statement further said that the duo left Awe for Abuja together, from where Sanusi will proceed to Lagos.
