Hundreds of Kano residents trooped into the street on Monday evening to catch a glimpse of Governor Abba Kabir Yusuf, who was sacked by the Court of Appeal Court, expressing their sympathy and praying for him to succeed at the Supreme Court.
The crowd took over the streets of the Kano metropolis, trooping out of their shops and homes to show support for the embattled governor, who went around the city to commission projects in the city.
Yusuf, who was on his first public outing in the state after he was sacked by the Appeal Court in Abuja, was hailed by supporters all along his way from the Government House to the Specialist Hospital on Monday evening. The crowds took over the streets, chanting songs and eulogies, and saying prayers for him.
