Kano NNPP rejects Appeal Court’s ruling on governorship election

The New Nigeria Peoples Party (NNPP) in Kano has rejected the verdict of the court of appeal on the March 18 election in the state.

A three-member panel of the appellate court led by Justice M.A. Adumeh had earlier on Friday upheld the verdict of the Kano State governorship election tribunal which sacked Abba Yusuf as governor of the state.

The panel declared the All Progressives Congress (APC) candidate, Yusuf Gawuna, as the duly elected governor of the state.
