Yakasai said:

“I wish to congratulate my brother Abba Kabir Yusuf of NNPP for emerging victorious in the recently concluded governorship election.
“I am optimistic that he would use his experience to move the state forward, considering how the state has gone backwards in different areas of development. I urge you to work hard to revive the reputation of Kano state.”
