Kwankwaso Denies Reaching Agreement With Tinubu on Kano Supreme Court Judgement

The New Nigeria Peoples Party (NNPP) presidential candidate in the 2023 election, Senator Rabiu Musa Kwankwaso, has debunked the allegation of reaching an agreement with President Bola Tinubu or anyone concerning the outcome of the Supreme Court ruling on the Kano State governorship election.

The Supreme Court on Friday affirmed the NNPP’s Abba Kabir Yusuf as the duly elected Governor of Kano State after a series of litigations at the Election Petition Tribunal and Appeal Court.

In an interview with BBC Hausa, the former Governor of Kano State said the Supreme Court’s outcome should serve as a lesson to everyone, insisting that he didn’t reach an agreement with anyone before the verdict.

Kwankwaso added he would not lord over Governor Yusuf, noting that he could only advise him.

He explained that there were errors with the previous judgment, but the Supreme Court undid what the judgements of the lower courts.

He explained that If it were in other climes, those who delivered the judgments in the lower courts would quit their jobs
