The Emir of Kano, Sanusi Lamido Sanusi, on Thursday, said that although he is a Muslim, he ‘loves Jesus Christ’.
The monarch, who made the statement via his Instagram handle had posted a picture with an inscription that says: “I am a Muslim and I love JESUS. Peace Be Upon Him.”
Captioning the picture, the Emir said, “Many people are unaware of the fact that one cannot be a Muslim without loving Jesus (Peace be upon him) known in Arabic as (Alayhis Salam).”
The post has however been deleted from his Instagram page.
