The Kano State governorship election petition tribunal has reserved judgment in the petition filed by the All Progressives Congress, APC, challenging the victory of Governor Abba Yusuf of the New Nigeria People’s Party, NNPP.
Justice Oluyemi Akintan-Osadebay, the chairman of the
three-man panel, who had promised on behalf of the panel to be fair to all
parties, said the judgment would come earlier than the 180 days allowed by the
law.
The adjournment followed the final addresses by both
parties.
While making a final address to the court, the APC urged the
tribunal to uphold its petition and return Nasir Gawuna as the winner of the
election.
While INEC, NNPP and Yusuf urged the tribunal to dismiss the
petition.
Meanwhile, the Police Command in Kano State has banned
protests by political parties and their supporters.
The Commissioner of Police, Mr Usuani Gumel, announced the
ban at a news conference in Kano while addressing newsmen at the command’s
headquarters on Monday in Kano.
