The Supreme Court has affirmed the election of Abdullahi Ganduje as governor of Kano and consequently dismissed the appeal filed by the PDP and its candidate, Abba Yusuf.
The seven-man panel headed by Chief Justice of Nigeria, Tanko Muhammad in an unanimous judgment, held that the appeal by the Peoples Democratic Party lacked merit.
They also added that the petitioner failed to substantially prove and provide evidence that there was any irregularity in the election held on March 9 and the supplementary election on March 23, 2019.
