BREAKING:Supreme Court Reinstates Abba Yusuf as Governor of Kano

In a significant legal development, the Supreme Court has overturned the Court of Appeal’s decision that nullified the election of Governor Kabir Yusuf in Kano state. The unanimous decision by a five-member panel of justices clarified a misunderstanding by the lower court regarding the deduction of 165,616 ballot papers.

Justice Inyang Okoro, delivering the lead judgment, emphasized that the matter of Governor Yusuf’s membership was a pre-election issue. He reaffirmed the court’s stance that the nomination or sponsorship of a candidate is solely the prerogative of the political party. The court dismissed the observation that Governor Yusuf was not sponsored by the NNPP, emphasizing that it was not a finding of the electoral tribunal.
