Ribadu threatens to sue Kano Dep Gov, Gwarzo

National Security Adviser (NSA), Mallam Nuhu Ribadu, has threatened to sue the Deputy Governor of Kano State, Aminu Abdussalam Gwarzo, over alleged defamation of character and image.

Ribadu issued the threat in a letter by his lawyers on Saturday over comments credited to Gwarzo allegedly accusing the NSA of deploying troops to escort the deposed Emir of Kano, Aminu Ado Bayero to return to the state after he was removed by Governor Abba Yusuf.

Bayero was on Thursday last week, dethroned by Yusuf who promptly reinstalled Sanusi Lamido Sanusi who himself, was deposed by former Governor Abdullahi Ganduje in 2019.
