The Chairman of the All Progressives Congress in Kano, Alhaji Abdullahi Abbas, has said that the party will reclaim more seats at the tribunal, including the seat of the governor.

Abbas, who made the declaration on Thursday while reacting to the recent verdict by the Election Petition Tribunal, said most of the candidates, who claimed to have won the election on the platform of the New Nigeria Peoples Party in the state, did the election.

The National and State House of Assembly Election Petition Tribunal on Thursday sacked the member representing Tarauni Federal Constituency in the House of Representatives, Umar Yerima, over certificate forgery.

Yerima was elected into the House of Representatives on the platform of the NNPP.

Ababas, however, alleged that about five members of the House of Representatives of the NNPP had cases of forgery hanging on their necks.

“We are confident that at the end of it, more seats would be returned to the APC by the court. This is just the beginning. Even the seat of the governor would be returned to us at the end of the day. They have violated many rules and regulations governing the conduct of elections during the polls and as such, the seats would be returned to the rightful owners,” Abbas added.
