A former Kaduna Central Senator, Shehu Sani, said the Kano governorship election case must be handled with utmost care.

Sani said the Court of Appeal CTC judgement in circulation affirmed the victory of Governor Abba Kabir Yusuf.

He said Nigeria’s democracy cannot survive when political interests override constitutional obligations.

The former federal lawmaker disclosed this via his X page (formerly known as Twitter), on Wednesday, November 22.

He wrote: “Kano the Court of Appeal CTC judgement in circulation clearly affirmed the victory of the serving Governor. The Kano matter is a grenade and the pin must be handled with the utmost care. Our democracy cannot survive when political interests overrides our moral and constitutional obligations to uphold the cause and the tenets of justice.”
