The All Progressives Congress, (APC) has asked the Kano Governorship Election Petition Tribunal to declare the March 18 election in the state inconclusive.
The party is challenging the declaration of Abba Kabir-Yusuf of the New Nigeria People’s Party (NNPP) as winner of the election by the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC).
In a five volume petition, filed dated April 9, the APC alleged that Kabir-Yusuf of NNPP was not qualified to contest the election on the grounds that his name was not on the list of members of NNPP sent to INEC.
The respondents in the petition are NNPP, Kabir-Yusuf and INEC.
Meanwhile, the Kano APC Legal adviser, Abdul Adamu-Fagge, said that the court has granted an ex-Parte motion to inspect the governorship election materials in all the 44 Local government of the state.
