Reports said the monarch inherited the money from his predecessor, Ado Bayero.
According to The Cable, the Assembly decided to probe Sanusi after a member representing Nasarawa constituency of the state, Ibrahim Gama moved a motion on urgent public importance.
Gama said some of the allegations against the monarch should not be ignored.
