The All Progressives Congress (APC) in Kano State has accused the New Nigeria Peoples Party (NNPP) of sharing fake results of Saturday’s governorship and house of assembly elections in the state.
The NNPP presidential candidate, Rabiu Kwankwanso, had earlier accused APC of vote-buying and rigging in the state.
