The Kano State Police Command has commended residents for their peaceful behaviour as Emirs Muhammad Sanusi II and Aminu Bayero presided over Friday prayers simultaneously in Kano.<\/p>\n
Both Emirs are laying claim to the throne. While Sanisu was reinstated by Gov. Abba Yusuf, Bayero is contesting his dethronement in the court.<\/p>\n
The city of Kano was predicted to witness clashes between the supporters of the two parties with the police warning potential troublemakers to stay away from Kano.<\/p>\n
While Sanusi led at the Central Mosque, Bayero, observed his prayers at the Nasarawa Palace.<\/p>\n
The Commissioner of Police, Mr Usaini Gumel, told the News Agency of Nigeria in an interview on Friday, that prayers were conducted in a peaceful atmosphere across the 44 LGAs of the state.<\/p>\n
\u201cI am very\u00a0pleased with the orderly manner faithful residents conducted themselves before, during and after the prayer\u2019s without rancour in all parts of the state.<\/p>\n
The Commissioner praised residents for their cooperation with police personnel deployed in and outside the metropolis, which resulted in zero crime being recorded.<\/p>\n
He appealed to residents to continue cooperating with the police to ensure peaceful coexistence in the state.<\/p>\n
\u201cThis is a testament to the effective collaboration between law enforcement and the community.<\/p>\n
\u201cThe police command looks forward to continued partnership in maintaining peace and order in the state\u201d, he said.<\/p>\n
