NNPP supporters stage protest in Kano, Gov. Yusuf challenges sack in S’Court
The Kano State Police Command on Wednesday dispersed supporters of the New Nigeria Peoples’ Party (NNPP) who were on the street to protest the recent judgment by the Appeal Court sacking Governor Abba Kabir Yusuf from office and declaring Nasiru Gawuna of the All Progressives Congress (APC) as winner of the 2023 Kano gubernatorial election.
The protest erupted after the Appeal Court handed over Certified True Copies of the judgment to the NNPP, whereby some contradictions were discovered.

The NNPP has since filed an appeal at the Supreme Court challenging the removal of Governor Abba Yusuf.
Most of the protesters were calling for justice by giving them what they voted for.
”Abba is our choice and that is the person we voted,” the protesters chanted.
The protesters took over BUK road and part of Gidan Murtala in Kano State.
