These expressions are used basically by Nigerians dailies but they are not the standard expressions to be used.

What does Governorship mean?

GOVERNORSHIP (noun)
The office or position of being governor of a town, region, or public institution.

‘the governorship of the bank’

‘By the early 1990s, the Texas governorship was again in the hands of a Democrat.’

‘The party has already lost the governorships of New Jersey and Virginia in the first major post-Obama votes.’

2. The period of incumbency of a governor
Example:

Let's find out what Gubernatorial means

GUBERNATORIAL (adjective)
Relating to a governor, particularly that of a state in the US.
Examples

‘a gubernatorial election’

‘Virginia is one of only two states with gubernatorial races this election year.’

‘Her brother Mitch is lieutenant governor and a future gubernatorial prospect.’

‘They are still finding uncounted ballots in Washington state from last fall's gubernatorial election.’

‘According to the bill, the province is allowed to arrange direct gubernatorial elections, whenever it is ready.’

‘After the attorney helped a gubernatorial candidate win an election, he became the governors counsel.’

‘Between now and next year, 38 states and two territories will hold gubernatorial elections.’

These examples and definitions were got from Oxford dictionary

You will agree with me that the best fit is the adjectival word 'gubernatorial' and not 'governorship'

In most cases, you will never find the aforementioned expressions in British and Ameiecan dailies. When you google 'governorship election', you are most likely to be on the Nigerian internet space

Gubernatorial election ✔

Etc.

Is English a Whitman's language?

Wasn't Greek and Latin more prominent than English.

There is no controversy that English has become the global language especially in Artificial intelligence and technological advancement.

That is if they use these languages for communication, they will actively be learning the right usage of the languages.

Well, If this forum were not using English, we wouldn't be discussing this in English.

The standard is Governortorial, according to the gospel of Buhari.
