Yesterday, a LIB reader sent me a scoop from Kano, claiming that the
Emir of Kano, Muhammadu Sanusi II, got married to his 4th wife, an 18
year old Adamawa princess. She wrote;
"Emir of Kano just wedded Lamido Adamawa's daughter Sa'adatu. The Emir was absent but in attendance was the Wakili Kano and the governor of Kano. The wedding took place after juma'at prayers at the Lamido palace"
I didn't carry the story because there were no photos and I didn't have
anyway of confirming it. But it looks like it may be true. A few online
news sites have confirmed that the Emir indeed tied the knots with
Sa’adatu
Barkindo-Musdafa, the daughter of the Lamido of Adamawa, Muhammadu
Barkindo Musdafa, yesterday
According to Premium Times, the lady recently completed secondary school and is being
enrolled for advanced level studies. The secret wedding
fatiha held inside the palace of the Lamido minutes after the Jumma’at
prayer. The emir only sent out invitation to some dignitaries across the
country, and Kano government officials sneaked into Yola for the wedding
fatiha to avoid journalists.
