Join war against
terrorism, Buhari writes
Sanusi
Former Military Head of
State and a leader of the
All Progressives Congress,
Maj-Gen. Muhammadu
Buhari(retd.), on Monday
asked the new Emir of
Kano, Mallam Lamido
Sanusi, to support the
Federal Government’s war
against terrorism in the
country.
Buhari, in a
congratulatory letter he
personally signed and a
copy made available to
newsmen in Kaduna,
urged the new emir to
bring to bear his wealth of
experience in assisting the
economic revival of the
state and the country in
general.
The former military
leader, who was also a
presidential candidate of
the defunct Congress of
Progressive Change in the
2011 presidential election,
reminded the former CBN
boss to fear God in
treating the people of
Kano with justice and
fairness as his choice as
the emir was purely an act
of God.
Buhari said, “You (Emir)
should cultivate all and
exclude none.
“After attending the burial
of the late emir, Alhaji Ado
Bayero, I am renewing my
condolences to the new
emir, Alhaji Sanusi Lamido
Sanusi, and the people of
Kano and the country on
the death of Alhaji Ado
Bayero.
“I am forwarding my
congratulations to you for
assuming the office of
emir of this historic land,
a position once occupied
by great historical figures
such as Muhammadu
Rumfa, Ibrahim Dabo,
Abdullahi Bayero and
Muhammadu Sanusi.
“I hope you will be worthy
successor to those great
men.”
