The Attorney-General of the Federation and Minister of Justice, Mr. Abubakar Malami (SAN) has distanced himself from the dethronement and banishment of former Emir of Kano, Muhammadu Sanusi II.

Malami, while reacting in a short statement by his Special Assistant on Media and Public Relations, Umar Gwandu, on Sunday, said that he is in no way connected with the dethronement of Sanusi.

The AGF maintained that he will not comment on the matter because it is currently pending before the court.

Stressing further, Mr Malami said that the dethronement saga has been effectively submitted for judicial determination. The matter is consequently subjudice.
