On Wednesday, May 10, the State Assembly set up an 8-member panel to probe Emir Sanusi over alleged abuse of office and improper conduct, among other allegations.
The assembly's move followed a step taken by the state's anti-corruption agency to investigate the Emir.
The agency said it was probing allegations of financial impropriety running into billions of naira leveled against Sanusi.
