Abubakar Yesufu, the spokesman for the New Nigeria Peoples Party’s (NNPP) Presidential Campaign Council, has described the All Progressives Congress’ (APC) efforts to challenge the NNPP’s victory in the Kano State governorship election as futile.

It also urged the party to congratulate the newly-elected Governor, Alhaji Abba Kabir Yusuf, stating that the election proved the candidate’s popularity and acceptance.

This was stated by Yesufu in a statement made available to the media.

His words: “The move by the APC to challenge the Kano gubernatorial result is an attempt to cover up the disgraceful and disastrous performance of Mallam Yusuf Gawuna and his collaborators in Saturday’s gubernatorial election in Kano State.”

We congratulate the incoming governor, Abba Kabir Yusuf, on his well-deserved victory. We remind Yusuf Gawuna to be a sportsman by extending our congratulations to the victor. Our candidate won despite the use of coercion to silence him with over 1,200,000,000 votes and 890 fictitious votes obtained by Gawuna through dubious means. Indeed, the contest was between the powerful but unpopular Mallam Yusuf Gawuna, the current Deputy Governor, and the powerless but popular Abba Kabir Yusuf of the NNPP. At this time, we commend Prof. Doko Ibrahim, Vice Chancellor of Ahmadu Bello University, for his steadfastness, refusal to compromise, and insistence on justice and the truth. As we celebrate Abba Kabir Yusuf, we are humbled by the trust placed in the Kwankwasiya Movement and the party. We are also grave about the arson and murder of innocent people in an effort to maintain an anti-people government.”
