The Kwankwassiyya Movement don reveal say e go engage the Independent National Electoral Commission, INEC, to resolve the omission of Mustapha Rabiu Kwankwaso, wey be the deputy governorship candidate of the Nigeria Democratic Congress, NDC, for Kano State, from the commission’s final list of candidates.

The NDC don also describe the omission as an error and say e dey seek correction from INEC. The Kwankwassiyya Movement say e no go rush into any action wey no follow the law, but go explore the available legal options to make sure say the matter receive attention.

According to the movement’s spokesperson, electoral provisions give affected candidates 14 days to seek redress when their names no appear on the list. The group say e go use the opportunity to engage INEC and pursue the matter through the proper channels.

Habibu further express confidence say the issue fit still resolve, insisting say the movement no see any clear reason why Kwankwaso’s name suppose dey missing from the list. However, until INEC address the complaint and make any necessary correction, the uncertainty over the NDC candidates’ status for Kano State go continue.

The development don therefore put attention on INEC and the next steps wey the commission go take as political parties prepare for the 2027 elections.

The big question now be: Na ordinary administrative mistake cause the omission, or INEC get another reason wey e never make public? Nigerians and Kano political observers go dey watch how the matter unfold.
