Adamu Aliyu, the Kano State Commissioner of Lands, had issued a death threat to the judges of the Governorship Election Petition Tribunal.
The commissioner also promised to unleash mayhem on residents of the state, one worse than what residents of neighbouring Kaduna and Zamfara are going through.
The election of the governor of the state, Abba Yusuf, is being challenged at the tribunal by the candidate of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Nasiru Gawuna.
The tribunal is yet to fix a date to deliver its judgement on the petition.
While suggesting that judges of the tribunal may have been bribed to rule against his party, Aliyu said if the tribunal judges ruled against the New Nigeria Peoples Party (NNPP), they may pay with their lives.
