In a unanimous judgement read by Justice Sylvester Ngwuta on Monday, the court held that the challenger, Abba Yusuf of the Peoples Democratic Party, did not show that the Court of Appeal and the Election Tribunal were wrong in their earlier rulings.The apex court also struck out a cross-appeal filed by Mr Ganduje, the candidate of the All Progressives Congress, APC.
The Court of Appeal five-member panel, led by Justice Tijjani Abubakar, in a unanimous judgment, dismissed the entire petition of the PDP’s candidate and its party for lacking in merit. Dissatisfied, the candidate of the PDP and his party challenged the outcome at the Kano State Election Petition Tribunal.Appearing before the apex court on Tuesday, the lawyer to Mr Yusuf of the PDP, Adegboyega Awomolo, asked the court to allow the appeal and grant all the appellant’s prayers.
Mr Awolowo said the cancellation made by the state returning officer in 207 polling units after announcing the entire results in the state was outside his powers.“The only lawful votes at the Kano State governorship election were those announced by the returning officer on March 11.
The man is a failure
APCUKingdom Marliansnation Corruptpeople Everybody na criminal
APCUKingdom It's no news
If Ganduje will survived and Emeka of IMO us removed ,then indeed anarchy has taken over Nigeria.
As expected
If you re still waiting for a defined forensic to supposedly believe that this govt is on a good course, u re wasting your time. It's no longer de govt of the people bt of the few political elite with de executives power using the state machineries against de pple mandates.
Signed and sealed✌ baban Abba Ganduje💃💃
Now the beast is free to finish its prey, Sanusi. The only door of escape that the SLS has had been closed. Attempts to cut him into sizes will be perfected in few days time. SLS and Kwankwaso sowed wind and they will reap whirlwind. Not a fan of GEJ but I hate treachery.
Justice Ngwuta? Efcc discovered bags filled with foreign currencies and other bags with local currencies in his house. So this man is still collecting bribe?
Of course it did
Judiciary !Judiciary!Judiciary!how many times did i call you.
'The Ganduje escape '...title of a movie.
Tanko Mohammed has destroyed the Supreme Court
Great news, I am very happy with this news.
388 polling units were alleged to have been excluded unlawfully in Imo and it was added but election results that were unlawfully canceled in Kano which in turn led to rerun election were upheld by the same court. Same scenarios with different judgments.
They can do more worse than that
As Expected!!!!!!
Our democracy has died. Sorry our good people of Kano just is a matter of time.
This settles it. Congratulations Gov. Ganduje. You can continue with infrastructures re-engineering for the good people of Kano.
why wont the supreme court uphold his election when the court is subject the ruling party.
Supremeyoghurt has done it again! :(
We reject the outcome😂😂😂~~~PDP
