BREAKING: Kano tribunal sacks Datti, returns Kwankwaso

The National/State House of Assembly Election Petition Tribunal sitting in Kano has voided the the election of Yusuf Datti of New Nigeria People’s Party.

The tribunal hinged the sack on the failure of Datti to resign from Bayero University, Kano 30 days before the election.

Justice Ngozi Azinge consequently ordered Independent National Electoral Commission to set aside the certificate of return earlier issued to Datti and declare Musa Ilyasu Kwankwaso as winner of the election having scored the second highest votes during the election of Kura/ Madobi/Garun Malam Federal House of Representatives, held on 25th Feb. 2023.
