Kano calm as APC, NNPP heed security advice over Appeal Court judgement

Members of the All Progressives Congress (APC) and New Nigeria People Party (NNPP) in Kano State have heeded the advice of security agencies to neither celebrate nor protest the outcome of the Court of Appeal Judgement on the govenorship election in the state.

The police command in the state on Thursday, a day before the Court of Aapeal judgement, warned that any cluster of gatherings by either members of the political parties might result in violent confrontations, chaos and a breakdown of law and order.

A three-member panel of the Court of Appeal led by Moore Adumein, in a unanimous judgement on Friday, declared Nasiru Gawuna, of the APC the winner of the 18 March governorship election in the state.
