The Supreme Court has fixed January 20 for judgement on the appeal against the election of Governor Abdullahi Ganduje of Kano State.

Chief Justice of Nigeria, Justice Tanko Muhammad, led a seven-man panel on Tuesday in deciding the date after hearing appeal by the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) and its candidate in the election held on March 9, 2019, Kabir Abba-Yusuf.

Both the Kano State Governorship Election Petition Tribunal and the Court of Appeal had dismissed the PDP’s case and ruled in favour of Ganduje and his party, the All Progressives Congress (APC).
