The Kano State chapter of the All Progressives Congress (APC) clarified yesterday that it has not agreed with Governor Abba Kabir Yusuf of the New Nigeria People’s Party (NNPP) to influence the court judgment.
The party refuted rumours suggesting tension in Kano following the governor’s electoral loss at the tribunal and appeal court.
Prince Abbas Abdullahi, the APC state chairman, dismissed as “untrue and frivolous” the speculations that Governor Yusuf had made a deal with the APC to concede arguments at the Supreme Court, paving the way for his victory and subsequent defection to the APC.
The party also labelled the rumours of President Bola Ahmed Tinubu’s intervention in the Supreme Court judgment as fake news to secure Yusuf’s declaration as the legitimate Governor of Kano State.
