 He made the announcement during an emergency press conference in Kano on Sunday, following the results of the Kano South senatorial zone vote count, which put him in the lead.

He also accused the opposition All Progressives Congress (APC) candidate, Kabiru Gaya, of masterminding the attacks that resulted in the destruction of the collation center.

He also claimed that intelligence reports he has access to show that the same incident is being planned for Rano local government area to disrupt the collation of voting results.

"Even though the security agencies did their best in overcoming the challenges, from yesterday to date, reports reaching us are not good.

"Our opponents, the APC is planning to attack some collation centres. We provided this information to security agencies.

“It so happened that one of the collation centres at Takai local government was attacked today at about 10:00am.

Some miscreants came with weapon and tried to disrupt the collation process.

“They beat up some oficials at the collation centre, they shot at some of our supporters who were there waiting to witness the declaration of results. Unfortunately one is dead and the other is hospitalized at the moment” he stated.

The Police Public Relations Officer SP Abdullahi Kiyawa confirmed the incidence adding that voting materials were evacuated and arrests were made.

“Attempts were made by some miscreants to burn down the place but the fire was put out and all the election materials were evacuated.

“More so, three persons have been arrested and investigations are on” he stated.
