INEC Clears Pantami, Gwarzo for 2027 Governorship Elections
The Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) has approved former Minister of Communications and Digital Economy, Professor Isa Ali Pantami, and the Nigeria Democratic Congress (NDC) governorship candidate in Kano State, Aminu Abdulsalam Gwarzo, following a review of complaints against its final list of candidates for the 2027 general elections.
Pantami, the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) governorship candidate in Gombe State, received the commission’s clearance after his name was initially excluded from the final list published on October 10.
The development follows INEC’s consideration of petitions and complaints arising from the publication of the candidates’ list.
