The hidden feud between the newly-appointed Emir of Kano, Alhaji Muhammadu Sanusi II, and the first son of his predecessor late Emir Alhaji Ado Bayero continues, as Sanusi Ado Bayero has allegedly refused to join his siblings, who paid the first courtesy visit to the new emir.

According to DailyTrust, the homage visit took place over the weekend in absence of the patriarch of Bayero family and the Ciroma of Kano who was outside Nigeria for medical treatment. Sanusi Ado Bayero reportedly left the country immediately, after as it has became clear that he had lost the race for succeeding the throne.
The visit on June 14, 2014, Saturday, means that the Bayero's would not challenge Sanusi's appointment and coronation. On the other hand, the absence of main contender for the throne reminds a one historical analogy.
Vanguard recalls that a similar scenario played itself up when late Bayero emerged as the Emir of Kano 51 years ago.
Aminu Sanusi, father of the new emir, was Ciroma Kano in 1963, when the kingmakers chose Ado Bayero as the emir. He had never paid a solidarity visit to Ado Bayero until his death.
However, absolute majority of late emir's children completed the courtesy visit. The ex CBN boss had to wave the tradition according to which "the emir does not hold court weekends" to receive the following visitors:
Alhaji Aminu Ado Bayero, District Head of Dala; Alhaji Nasiru Ado Bayero, District Head of Nasarawa; Alhaji Mahmud Ado Bayero, District Head of Fagge; Alhaji Ibrahim Ado Bayero, District Head of Sumaila and Alhaji Aliyu Ado Bayero, District Head of Kunchi.
The Galadiman Kano, Alhaji Tijjani Hashim, was also in attendance.
Alhaji Sanusi Ado Bayero spoke to DailyTrust via phone from Abuja on June 16, 2014, Monday. The Ciroma of Kano urged the people of his state to embrace peace, but did not comment on the big Saturday's visit by his siblings.
It would be recalled that Alhaji Ado Bayero passed away on June 6, 2014, Friday. The first son of the late emir was one of the favourites to ascend his father's throne.
However, the expectations were broken, as the kingmakers announced the immediate past Central Bank Governor, Sanusi Lamido Sanusi, as the new Emir of Kano on June 8, 2014, Sunday. The process and consultations with Governor Rabi'u Musa Kwankwaso lasted for two days.
On the following day, Kwankwaso granted the letter of appointment to Sanusi at the Government House in Kano amidst protests near the emir's palace and neighbouring area. The newly-elected emir was barred from entering his palace for four days since his election.
It would be added that a delegation of Sultan of Sokoto, Muhammad Sa'ad Abubakar III, was at the emir's palace in Kano on June 16, 2014, Monday, to pay homage to Muhammadu Sanusi II. The head of the delegation and Magajin Garin Sokoto, Alhaji Hassan Danbaba, passed sincere greetings to the new monarch on his appointment as the 14th emir of Kano.
