Members of the Kano State House of Assembly are currently fighting over plan to submit a report, recommending the removal of Emir of Kano Muhammadu Sanusi II.

The speaker of the Assembly, Abdulaziz Gafasa, without reading the exact content of the petition, then set up a committee headed by the deputy speaker, Hamisu Chidari, to investigate and report within one week.
