The faction of the All Progressives Congress (APC) in Kano State, which has Ahmadu Haruna Zago as its state chairman, says it will proceed to the Supreme Court over the crisis rocking the party in the state.

The Court of Appeal in Abuja Thursday upheld the appeal by Governor Abdullahi Ganduje-led faction of the APC in Kano State against the party’s faction loyal to a former governor of the state, Senator Ibrahim Shekarau.

A three-member panel of the appellate court presided by Justice Haruna Tsammani set aside the judgment of the FCT High Court for lack of jurisdiction.

But Zago told BBC Hausa Service that their lawyers were studying the court’s ruling for a possible appeal.

He said, “We will appeal. Abiding by the ruling is quite different from filing an appeal.

“Our lawyers are studying the court’s ruling.”
