Governor of Zamfara state Abdelaziz Yari, on Saturday hit out at emir of Kano Muhammadu Sanusi II, calling him "hypocrite" and "shallow". "By a certain bizarre coincidence too, like a prophesy foretold, Sheikh Mahmood Jaafar had before he was assassinated named Sanusi Lamido Sanusi as one of those whose hypocrisy would bring an epidemic of monumental proportions to this country. The tapes are very much in circulation long after Sheikh Jaafar’s death." “Sanusi Lamido is one of the enemies of Islam who would assume all traits of a good Muslim but deep inside them is a hatred of Islam, and the people far beyond human imagination.” Could this be a prophecy foretold? The Emir of Kano, Muhammad Sanusi II,  on Wednesday blasted Abdulaziz Yari, as an incompetent leader for failure to prepare for the meningitis outbreak despite being given prior warning. “Abdulaziz Yari quite ludicrously said that the deadly meningitis rampaging his State is di...
