A Kano State High Court has ruled that the federal government must not interfere with funds belonging to the 44 local government councils in the state.
Justice Musa Ibrahim Karaye delivered the ruling on Monday after reviewing evidence presented by local government representatives.
The All Progressives Congress (APC) had sought a court order to halt the disbursement of funds to the local governments, alleging irregularities in the local government elections conducted by the Kano State Independent Electoral Commission in October 2024.
