The 2023 presidential candidate of New Nigeria Peoples Party (NNPP), Senator Rabiu Kwankwaso, and Governor Abba Kabir Yusuf of Kano State were among the dignitaries present at a special prayer organised ahead of the Governorship Election Petitions Tribunal.
The Kano State Government organised the special prayer which was held at the Filin Mahaha along BUK road on Saturday.
The prayer was also attended by the Deputy Governor, Aminu Abdussalam, along with other top dignitaries of the state government.
It was led by Dr. Sani Ashir.
The Challenge
The All Progressives Congress (APC) is challenging the emergence of Governor Yusuf at the Elections Petitions Tribunal.
The Tribunal on Monday after parties adopted their final written addresses reserved its judgment to a day that would soon be communicated.
Before then, there were allegations that some lawyers were allegedly bribing or making attempts to bribe members of the Elections Petitions Tribunal on behalf of their clients.
The Protest
This led to accusations and counter-accusations between the APC and the NNPP in the state.
