EX. CBN GOV. AND EMIR OF KANO SET TO MARRY FOURTH WIFE.

  In an unconfirmed report,it was gathered that the former Central Bank of Nigeria governor and now Emir of Kano, Malam Sanusi Lamido Sanusi  (Muhammadu Sanusi II), is set to take his fourth wife.  The bridal candidate is  a 17-year-old beautiful daughter of the Lamido of Adamawa, Alhaji Muhammadu Barkindo Aliyu Musdafa. 

Sanusi, an accomplished banker, who became the 14th Emir of Kano last June, is  a respected Islamic Scholar, and his decision to take a new wife is in line with Islamic injunction which prescribes a maximum of four wives for those who can treat all of them equally. He already has three beautiful wives - Sadiya, Maryam and Rakiya.  Like in ancient times when bonds between empires were deepened by marriages among royals and nobles across boundaries, the betrothal of the Adamawa princess to Emir Sanusi  II may also be a move to deepen royal bond between Adamawa and Kano.  

Hmnm, what can one say?? Congratulations are in order abi? At least the bride to be is not under age or is she????
