The Court of Appeal sitting in Abuja has reserved judgement in the appeal by Kano State Governor, Abba Yusuf, challenging his sack by the Governorship Election Petitions Tribunal.
The tribunal had, on September 20, nullified Yusuf’s election by declaring 165,663 of his votes invalid, adding that the ballot papers were neither signed nor stamped by the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC).
The tribunal, therefore, declared the candidate of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Nasiru Gawuna, as the winner of the March 18 governorship election in Kano State.
Dissatisfied with the judgement, Yusuf appealed against the tribunal verdict and urged the court to set aside the judgement.
