2027 Elections: INEC list sparks protests, political tension as Pantami, Adebutu miss out

Also missing from the list is Aminu Gwarzo, the Nigeria Democratic Congress governorship candidate in Kano State and a former deputy governor of the state.

While the Ogun PDP accused the ruling All Progressives Congress of mounting pressure on INEC to exclude Adebutu, Pantami’s camp urged supporters to remain calm, describing the development as a temporary challenge. Gwarzo was yet to react as of the time of filing this report, Sunday PUNCH reports.

Meanwhile, supporters of politicians whose candidacies had come under scrutiny following a recent Supreme Court judgment expressed relief after their names appeared on the electoral commission’s list.
