The opposition Peoples Democratic
Party (PDP) governorship candidate, Abba Kabir-Yusuf, has got the highest
number of votes from results of the 44 Local Government areas in Kano State.
The Resident Electoral Commissioner
(REC) of the state, Riskuwa Shehu, had ordered for fresh collation of results
from the wards in Nasarawa local government after the local government
collation centre was attacked and the main result sheet was torn.
However, Kabir-Yusuf, a son-in-law
to ex-governor Rabiu Kwankwaso, won the pending local government which had
delayed the final announcement of governorship election result in the state.
After collation of results from 10
wards of the local government last night, PDP scored 54,349, votes while the
governing All Progressives Congress (APC), scored 34,297 votes.
Based on the results collated at the
state collation centre, the PDP, which had earlier polled 960,004 votes from 43
local governments now has a total of 1,014,353 votes.
The APC which had polled 953,522
votes from 43 local government areas now has 987,819 votes.
