Kano State Government on Monday morning imposed a dawn-to-dusk curfew on the state with immediate effect .

The state Commissioner for Information and Internal Affairs, Muhammad Garba, made the announcement in a statement in Kano.

The government’s action is a response to the tension generated by the declaration of the NNPP as the winner of the governorship election held in March 18.

Garba confirmed this when he said the curfew was imposed to prevent hoodlums from causing chaos.

The commissioner called on people in the state to remain indoors as security agents would not spare anyone or group bent on causing trouble.

The INEC had earlier in the day declared the governorship candidate of the New Nigeria Peoples Party (NNPP), Yusuf Kabir as the governor-elect of the state.

Kabir was declared winner after polling 1,019,602 votes to defeat his closest contender, Nasir Gawuna of the APC who polled 890,705 votes.

“That Yusuf Kabir of NNPP having satisfied the requirement of the law is hereby declared the winner and is returned elected,” the Returning Officer, Prof Ahmad Ibrahim declared.

The two main contestants were backed by political gladiators in the state which boasts of high numerical voter strength.

Kabir was backed by former Kano governor and NNPP presidential candidate, Rabiu Kwankwaso who has a “cult-like” following in Kano with his socio-political movement known as the Kwankwasiyya.

Gawuna was also endorsed by the incumbent governor and APC powerbroker, Abdullahi Ganduje whose two-term of eight years end on May 29, 2023.

For years, Ganduje and Kwankwaso have remained arch-political rivals over the control of Nigeria’s unarguably most populated state with a commensurate number of voters, the highest nationwide.(ChannelsTV)
