Khadija Sanusi, daughter of Muhammadu Sanusi II, the former Emir of Kano, has responded to a social media user’s tweet about her husband.
On April 18, Khadija and Abdulmutalib Shittu tied the knot
in a glamorous ceremony in Kano.
Shittu, who is from Kwara state, is said to be of Fulani and
Yoruba descent.
He is the former executive chairman of Kwara Geographical
Information Services (KW-GIS).
Shittu is also the senior special assistant on geographical
information service to AbdulRahman AbdulRazaq, Kwara state governor.
Celebrating the new couple, the user shared a photo from
their wedding ceremony while describing Khadija’s husband as a “Yoruba man”.
“Daughter of former Kano emir Muhammadu Sanusi II, Khadija
Yusrah Sanusi married a Yoruba man from Kwara,” the user wrote.
I guess I can now be referred to as “Mrs. Yoruba man from Kwara” https://t.co/28pzTDih39

Reacting to the X user’s post, the former emir’s daughter
said people are free to describe her as the wife of a Yoruba man.
“I guess I can now be
referred to as ‘Mrs. Yoruba man from Kwara’,” she wrote.
In 2020, Muhammadu Sanusi II, a sitting Emir of Kano, was
deposed by Abdullahi Ganduje, the state governor, for “disrespecting lawful
instructions.”
Sanusi served as the governor of the Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN) from 2009 to 2014. He was suspended by ex-President Goodluck Jonathan under controversial circumstances.

This marriage between the young couple shows how Nigeria should be. The mixture in their cultural heritage and divergent in ingredients made the marriage unique and special. I personally love the newly weeded couple and above all, I will say bravo to former Emir of Kano His Excellency EMIR SANUSI II who’s the father of the bride for allowing his daughter to tie the knot with someone, though partly Fulani and Yoruba. It demonstrates how education is extremely important in our lives, it gives us a wider understanding of both current and ancestral events and changes, and how to erase so many incongruities stipulated by ancient times and the this new modern world. This’s is extremely fantastic on his part. I think he’s a detribalise human being.
