AP didn’t win Kaduna governorship election, PDP claims

The Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) in Kaduna State is opposing the result of the March 18 governorship election.

The Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) declared Uba Sani of the All Progressives Congress (APC) as Governor-elect.

PDP State Chairman, Felix Hyet on Tuesday rejected the figures announced by the Returning Officer, Prof. Lawal Bilbis.

Hyet noted that Sani, a Senator, polled 730,002 votes against 719,196 votes “allocated to our candidate, Isa Ashiru”.

“The PDP rejects this declaration. We reject INEC’s claims that Uba Sani won the gubernatorial election,” he asserted.

The opposition commended party members and followers for their support, vowing to reclaim its mandate.

Hyet disclosed plans are underway to challenge the outcome of the poll legally in accordance with the law.
