The Appeal Court has cleared the Kano State Governorship candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), Abba Yusuf to contest in the 2019 Governorship elections in the state.
The Appeal Court presided over by Justice Daniel Kalio granted a stay of execution of the order of a high court which stopped the PDP from recognizing Yusuf as the PDP’s governorship candidate.
Naija News reports that the Appeal Court’s order comes after a governorship aspirant, Mohammed El-Amin had gone to court to stop Yusuf from contesting in the election and citing irregularities during primaries as the reason.
In his reaction, Yusuf said; “As I always mention, the case mainly concerns our party and an aggrieved member who is working with the ruling All Progressive Party (APC) in the state to remedy the fast growing unpopularity of Governor Abdullahi Umar Ganduje.”
This is coming after a high court has disqualified the candidate of the APC from participating in the governorship election in Taraba.
