The Kano State
Governorship Election Tribunal on Wednesday sacked Abba Kabiru Yusuf as Kano State governor and declared the APC candidate, governor.
The panel led by Justice Oluyemi Akintan-Osadebay began proceedings remotely from the Miller Road venue of the tribunal.
During the hearing, the court deemed Yusuf’s election as Kano State governor invalid and declared the All Progressives Congress (APC) candidate, Nasir Gawuna, as the rightful winner.
In addition, the court ordered the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) to revoke Yusuf’s certificate of return and issue a new certificate to Gawuna, the APC candidate.
