Both the Appeal Court and the Tribunal upheld the position that Nasiru Gawuna, the All Progressives Congress (APC) candidate, emerged victorious in the election.

Subsequently, both courts directed the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) to revoke the Certificate of Return previously issued to Yusuf and reissue it to Gawuna, recognizing him as the duly elected governor of the state.
