I’m ready to face PDP in court - Ganduje boasts

The governor of Kano state, Abdullahi Ganduje, has said he is ready to face the People’s Democratic Party (PDP), in court over the party's plan to challenge his victory at the 2019 gubernatorial election for the state.

Ganduje, while speaking on Monday, April 1, in Ganduje town of Dawakin Tofa local government when he was receiving thousands of supporters who trooped to congratulate him over his re-election said the PDP is about to kick-start what would later consume them unawares.

The Nation reports that the governor said: “Before the re-run election, which we emerged victorious, they were deep-neck in ballot stuffing and other electoral offences, a ploy that was later uncovered.”

He noted that it was after that ballot stuffing incident that genuine election was conducted at the supplementary election.

Describing the supplementary election as credible, the governor said those that trooped to congratulate him and his government over the victory and assured them his administration would continue to make Kano one of the safest states in the country.

He said: "My thinking about these people is they are about to kick-start what would later consume them unawares."

“What they did in other elections of the state legislators in some places, will be looked at, with the view to ascertaining authenticity of such votes they claimed to have gotten,” Ganduje said.

"Whoever comes to Kano will attest to the fact that Kano is fast growing and developing. We will improve on this and will, at the same time, consolidate the feats achieved.”

“We are thanking those who voted for us, those who didn’t vote for us and those who didn’t even vote at all,” the governor added.
