Some Nigerians, on Sunday, stormed the High Commission in London demanding a just and fair Kano governorship election trial just as they faulted the recent judgment delivered by the Kano State Election Tribunal concerning the 2023 election.

The convener of the protest, Dr Aminu Bello told journalists at the event that they were at Nigeria’s embassy in London to protest the recent judgment delivered by the Kano State Election Tribunal concerning the 2023 election, a judgment that has raised serious questions about its fairness and has ignited a call for justice to be served.

Bello said: “We want to emphasize a crucial point: it is only the Independent National Electoral Commission that has the legal authority to cancel votes, not tribunal judges. The judiciary’s role is to interpret the law and ensure justice is served, not to alter the will of the people expressed at the ballot box.

While he stayed that democracy thrives on the diversity of political voices and the competition of ideas, he stated that Nigeria should never be reduced to a one-party system; as according to him the strength of its democracy lies in a vibrant multi-party system where all citizens have a fair chance to express their choices and aspirations.
