New Emir of Kano and ex-CBN governor Sanusi Lamido Sanusi has two wives, one (his first wife) he's been married to for 25 years..
Sanusi married Hajia Sadiya (nee Ado Bayero - pictured above) the 7th daughter and 16th child of late Emir of Kano, Alhaji Ado Bayero in the 80s. Hajia Sadiya, who rarely gives interviews, has finally opened on how she met and married Sanusi. Below is what she told Hausa mag, Aminiya..
"I knew I was going to be betrothed but I didn't know when since I wasn't being asked when. I met my husband through my own family - he is like my brother. He grew up in the Emir palace and I thought he was my elder brother because he was always with my older brothers. I grew up seeing him in our house so I was surprised when he started to show interest in me. I later discovered we were not related and married him.
