Kano State Governor Abba Kabir Yusuf has denied entering into any agreement with the Presidency prior to 12th January, 2024 Supreme Court judgement on the Kano election petition where he emerged victorious.
A statement by the governor’s spokesperson, Sanusi Bature Dawakin Tofa, described a document circulating in the social media indicating a four-year-term agreement between the governor and the presidency as an imaginary piece, devoid of all iota of truth.
“For the purposes of emphasis, the rather fake agreement saying Governor Yusuf has accepted to cross carpet to the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC), jettison purported claim to dissolve or allow the five emirates, discontinue the demolition of illegal structures and establishment of Kano Elders Council should be disregarded, the statement read.
“The governor would like to make it abundantly clear that having secured his mandate through popular votes of the good people of Kano, and certified by a fair affirmation of Supreme Court judgement, he would not be intimidated by any political opportunist.”
