While the fight plays out within court premises, both sides continue to organise events at their palaces, drawing influential figures to their gatherings.
While Bayero has continued to stay at the mini palace of the Emir, Sanusi remains recognised by the Kano state government. At the weekend, Rabiu Kwankwaso, a former governor in the state and ardent defender of Sanusi, held his daughter’s wedding at Sanusi’s palace.
Top Nigerian politicians, including Vice President Kashim Shettima and former Vice President Atiku Abubakar, attended the wedding. The event was strategic as it brought relevance to Sanusi as the Emir of Kano.
Days later, an invitation emerged revealing that Bayero’s palace would host the wedding of Deputy Senate President Jubrin’s son and daughter of the emir.
In the invitation shared by Barau in a tweet on Sunday, November 17, the deputy Senate president described Bayero as the Emir of Kano. The invitation has started generating reactions from concerned Nigerians.
Below are some of their reactions:

TimesNow.com.ng earlier reported that Primate Elijah Ayodele claimed he had a revelation that the embattled Muhammadu Sanusi II, the Emir of Kano, was ordained to rule the emirate.
Ayodele maintained that the warring parties in the state must accept Sanusi for their growth, prosperity and success.
The cleric further revealed that a revolution would relegate the traditional system to the background.
