Gov Yusuf dismisses reports of pact with presidency on Supreme Court judgment

The Kano State Governor, Abba Yusuf, on Monday, dismissed reports that he entered a pact with the presidency before the Supreme Court judgment that validated his election.

The apex court upheld Yusuf’s victory in the March 18, 2023 governorship election in the state.

The state election petitions tribunal and appeal court had earlier nullified Yusuf’s victory and declared the All Progressives Congress (APC) candidate, Yusuf Gawuna, as duly elected governor of the state.
