The Governor of Kano State, Abba Yusuf, has rejected Wednesday’s judgment of the Governorship Election Petition Tribunal sacking him as governor and announcing the candidate of the opposition All Progressives Congress (APC) Nadir Gawuna, as the winner of the 18 March election.
At a press conference late Wednesday, Mr Yusuf said that based on the feedback from his legal team, the judgment was marred by human imperfections and misapplication of the law, thus, he will seek justice at the Court of Appeal.
PREMIUM TIMES reported how the tribunal sacked Mr Yusuf of the New Nigeria Peoples Party (NNPP) after deducting 165,663 votes from the total votes he scored during the election.
