Kano electorates join queue at midnight

In what seems like a desperate move to end the reign of the incumbent Kano State governor's administration, electorates in some parts of the state have started joining the queue to cast their votes.

Legit.ng's regional reporter in Kano learned that most of the supporters who slept at the polling units belonged to the main opposition party in the state, the New Nigerian People Party (NNPP).

Recall that Engineer Abba Kabir Yusuf is the anointed candidate of Senator Rabiu Musa Kwankwaso in the party contesting against the incumbent deputy governor of Kano State, Dr Nasir Yusuf Gawuna of the All Progressive Congress, APC.

Kano State is one of the top embattled states where the polity is expected to be very volatile, and the gubernatorial seat is being keenly contested.
