Two sons of the Chief Judge of the Federation, Justice Ibrahim Tanko, have clinched National Assembly tickets for the 2023 elections.
One of them, Siraj Ibrahim Tanko, won the All Progressives Congress ticket for Bauchi North Senatorial District seat.
He defeated two other contestants, including the incumbent representative of the District, Senator Adamu Bulkachuwa.
While Siraj polled 189 votes, Imba, his closest rival, secured 177 votes, while Bulkachuwa did not get a single vote.
The other son of the CJN, Sani Ibrahim Tanko, won the Peoples Democratic Party primary election in Shira Giafe Federal Constituency.
Unlike his brother, the House of Representatives candidate was elected unopposed.
