CJN summons judges over conflicting orders on Kano emirship tussle

The Chief Justice Of Nigeria (CJN) Justice Tajudeen Olukayode Ariwoola, on Wednesday summoned the Chief Justice of the Federal High Court, John Tsoho and the Chief Judge of Kano State over the conflicting orders issued by Judges under their jurisdiction.

The summons became imperative following the conflicting orders issued by a Federal High Court sitting in Kano after an earlier order by the Kano State High Court on the tussle over the position of the Emir of Kano.

The orders had directed the reinstated Emir of Kano, Sanusi Lamido Sanusi to vacate the palace and the dethroned Emir Ado Bayero to also vacate the palace.
