Abba Kabir Yusuf of the New Nigeria People’s Party (NNPP) has been declared the winner of the Kano state governorship election by the Independent Electoral Commission of Nigeria (INEC).

Abba Kabir, popularly known as Abba Gida-gida, defeated his opponent from the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC) party, Nasiru Yusuf Gawuna, who is the deputy governor of Kano state.

The NNPP party is a relatively new party in Nigeria and has been gaining popularity in recent years. It was formed in 2013 and is based on the principles of transparency, accountability, and good governance.

The Chief Collector of Kano governorship election results, Professor Dikko Ahmad Ibrahim, announced that Abba Kabir received 1,019,602 votes, while Nasiru Gawuna got 890,705 votes.

The results also showed that the People’s Democratic Party (PDP) came in third place, with Sadik Wali receiving 15,957 votes, and Sha’aban Ibrahim Sharada of the Action Democratic Party (ADP) receiving 9,402 votes.

The NNPP party has reason to celebrate after Abba Kabir’s win in the Kano state governorship race.

The party had previously won the presidential election held on February 25 and had also won two-thirds of the senatorial seats in Kano and most of the seats in the House of Representatives from Kano state.

The election was largely peaceful, and INEC has been praised for conducting a free and fair election. The commission had earlier assured the people of Kano state and Nigerians as a whole that it would ensure a transparent, credible, and peaceful election in line with its mandate.

Abba Kabir’s victory has been celebrated by his supporters who have taken to the streets to express their joy and gratitude.

He has promised to work towards the development of Kano state and to ensure that the people of the state enjoy the dividends of democracy. The governor-elect has also thanked the people of Kano state for their support and trust in him and the NNPP party.

The NNPP’s victory in the Kano state governorship election is a sign of the changing political landscape in Nigeria.

It shows that there is room for new parties to emerge and gain support from the people. The NNPP’s focus on transparency, accountability, and good governance has resonated with many Nigerians, and it will be interesting to see how the party continues to grow and evolve in the coming years.
