Sanusi blames Jonathan for loss of free Palestinian State, asks Buhari to support

Emir of Kano, Malam Malam Muhammad Sanusi II, yesterday, called on the federal government to support free Palestinian state.
The emir said this during a one-day international conference on Palestine with the theme, “Palestine question; Issues, Challenges and Actions,” organised by the Center for Promotion of Shari’a in collaboration with Jama’atut Tajdidil Islamiya and the Afro-Middle East Center, South Africa held in Kano.


Emir Sanusi lamented that President Goodluck Jonathan’s administration was to blame for the failure of Palestinian bid to put an end to the Israeli occupation of Palestinian territories at the UN Security Council.


“For decades Nigeria has been in the support of free Palestine until during the Jonathan era when Nigeria played a vital role in the loss of Palestinian bid to put an end to the Israeli occupation of Palestinian territories at the UN Security Council.

“I believe it is time for Nigeria to revisit its stand on Palestine”, the Emir said.
