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