Senator Aliyu Agatakarda Wamakko has defeated the incumbent deputy Governor of Sokoto State, Manir Muhammad Dan’iya, to retain his seat at the Senate.
Wamakko scored 141,468 while Dan’iya got 118,445 after the supplementary election conducted on Saturday to decide the winner of the Sokoto-North senatorial election.
It would be recalled that the election was earlier declared inconclusive following some hitches recorded during the National Assembly elections in the state.
