The court invalidated Yusuf’s election as Kano State governor and declared candidate of the All Progressives Congress (APC) Nasir Gawuna as the winner of the election.
The court directed the Independent National Electoral Commission INEC to withdraw the certificate of return earlier issued to Governor Yusuf and ordered INEC to issue a fresh certificate to the APC candidate.
