BREAKING: KANO GOVERNORSHIP ELECTION TRIBUNAL REMOVES ABBA YUSUF, DECLARES NASIR GAWUNA OF APC WINNER

Kano Governorship Elections Petition Tribunal, on Wednesday, sacked the State’s Governor, Yusuf Abba, of the New Nigeria People Party. The tribunal, therefore, declared All Progressives Congress candidate, Nasir Gawuna, winner of the March 18 governorship poll.

The three-man panel ordered withdrawal of certificate of return which INEC presented to Governor Yusuf and directed a certificate of return to be issued to Gawuna.

The court deducted 165,663 votes from Gov Yusuf total as invalid votes, stating that the ballot papers (165,663) were not stamped or signed and therefore declared invalid.
