The police command in Kano has said that Emir Muhammad Sanusi II is scheduled to lead the Friday prayers at the central mosque, rather than Emir Aminu Bayero.
Police commissioner Usaini Gumel on Friday that Mr. Bayero will be attending his Friday prayers at the mosque located within the Nasarawa Palace, where he is currently staying.
The police chief in Kano emphasized that ample security measures would be in place at the Emir of Kano’s palace for the Jummah prayers led by Mr. Sanusi, with support from state security agencies.
He said, ”The police urge the general public to disregard the false reports and misinformation circulating on social media and go about their activities without fear of molestation or intimidation.
”The police will continue to provide necessary security to ensure that will enable residents to observe their Friday congressional prayers peacefully without threats to their lives and property,”
