INEC List: Don’t Waste Your Money In Court, Shehu Sani...
原文原文 / Original TextFormer Kaduna Central Senator, Shehu Sani, has advised some candidates excluded from the final list released by the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) not to waste their money challenging the decision in courts.
INEC released the list following a promise by its Chairman, Prof Joash Amupitan, who, at a press conference in Abuja earlier in the week, said the commission had received complaints from political parties and aggrieved aspirants concerning the implications of the Supreme Court judgement on eligibility on some candidates.
He said the commission had received the certified true copy of the judgement on Tuesday and was reviewing it to guide its decision on the next line of action.
Daily Trust had reported how the Supreme Court, in its September 24, 2026 judgement, affirmed the constitutionality of Sections 77(5), 77(6) and 77(7) of the Electoral Act 2026 and upheld INEC’s revised timetable and schedule of activities for the 2027 elections.

Following the judgement, INEC said political parties would not be allowed to participate in the 2027 elections if they fielded candidates whose names were not on the registers submitted to the commission within the stipulated period.
Speaking on Trust TV’s Daily Politics on Wednesday evening, INEC National Commissioner in charge of information and voter education, Malam Mohammed Haruna, said affected parties would also not be allowed to substitute such candidates, adding that those who violated the rules would not be allowed to benefit from their offence.
