National Chairman of All Progressives Congress (APC) Comrade Adams Oshiomhole congratulated governor Abdullahi Umar Ganduje of Kano state over his victory at the Supreme Court, that upholds his gubernatorial election.
APC, according to him “Remains the favoured party of Kano people, this is what the Supreme Court affirms. By upholding Kano election, it shows that governor Abdullahi Umar Ganduje wins his election clearly.”
He congratulated Ganduje when the governor paid him a visit to present to him Alhassan Ado Doguwa, at his residence in Abuja, who recently wins his election after court nullified his 2019 election, as a member of the House of Representatives, representing Tudunwada/Doguwa federal constituency.
Reminding that, from the Election Tribunal to Court of Appeal up to Supreme Court, “Governor Ganduje’s case passed all the stages successfully, which shows that our governor was duly elected. And with the Supreme Court verdict all doubts were cleared away,” he says.
Oshiomhole prayed for more strength for the governor as he passed through all Court cases, after “…his legitimate winning of the election that was contested in courts by the opposition People’s Democratic Party (PDP).”
The party Chairman commended Doguwa for being a dogged fighter who wins another election after Court nullified earlier election, emphasising that, “Your victory over this election is enough to show that your people are still interested in your good representation at the National Assembly.”
Earlier in his remarks governor Ganduje said to the party Chairman “The Chairman of our great party, the APC, we are bringing to you the newly elected member of the House of Representatives, from Tudunwada/Doguwa federal constituency, Hon. Alhassan Ado Doguwa with his Golden Certificate of Return for your blessing.”
He appreciated all the necessary support accorded to the party in the state by the national headquarters of the party under Comrade Oshiomhole, adding that, “Mr Chairman our great party is doing well at all levels. We shall all continue to be loyal members of the party.”

Jibrin, representing Kano North was on the entourage of the governor, National Treasurer of the party, Adamu Panda and other members of the House who accompanied the governor with their colleague, were Engineer Sani Bala, Muhammad Ali Wudil, Aminu Sulaiman Goro, Shamsuddeen Dambazau among others, were at the occasion.
